hi,
we have an owc thunderbay 4 drive, with 4 8tb hard disks.
one hard disk suddenly disappeared, so I replaced it with a new disk.
I'm not 100% sure about the next step:
- I initialized it
- in the right area of the window I see the status "Raid 5 - degraded - missing disk"
- because of raid 5 we can still normally access the files
- do I now go to "add disk" and add the new disk or
- do I need before this step go to "remove missing disk" - if I use this command, of course nothing happens with the files on the working raid 5?
many thanks

Just initialize the new disk and "Add disk". hte volume needs to be a healthy read/write, which I am assuming it is.
