Unusable Arrays lists any RAID configuration missing too many drives
to construct the unit. For example, a RAID 5 unit with two or more drives
missing appears in this list.
•
Incomplete Drives and Others lists drives that are remaining from a unit
with missing or failed drives and drives that are not usable.
When some of the drives are remaining from a unit, you can power down
and add the missing drives to complete the unit. To use drives that are
listed here in other units, you must first delete them. For more
information, see “Deleting a Unit” on page 121.
