If you only have 3 physical disks, not 5, then just use the volumes command "remove missing secondary disks". This is a counter.

If you have two more off site disks, then don't, it will split them from the mirror volume.

Let's try again.

Its better than a picture.

Previously, on the Intel I got a warning that I was missing 2 secondary disks, yet the bar connecting Volumes to Disks remained green for all 3 of my Raid 1 Mirrors. This has obviously continued after transfer to M1. Do I really want to remove them? Is there any way to get them attached without removing them and re-initializing? I'm attaching a screen print of Softraid as well as the tech support report. (Sorry for older report, couldn't figure out how to remove it from post).
