I have a RAID 5 data volume that has two drives blinking amber and indicate Predictive Failure. OK, but one of the drives is a replacement for a failed drive. So, I guess it could be DOA. Windows is indicating many instances of the following TWO errors - I wonder if I'm seeing a problem with the RAID controller itself (p400). Also which is "bus 0 and ID 5. "? There are 8 drives - first two RAID 1 (OS) and next 6 RAID 5 It is the last two in the RAID 5 with blinking lights so I guess it actually in bay 7? Any help would be appreciated.
