I have a ML150 G2 with Raid 5 (w/4 drives) server.  When booting it says the member drives are not part of the array – no operating system.

The drives show up in Disk Manager on an XP machine: Disk 1 – Healthy Disk 2 – Unallocated (not initialized) Disk 3 – Unallocated (not initialized) Disk 4 – Unallocated (not initialized)

Thank you!!!  Desparate for help!!!

Do I need all 6 drives in the array or can I make one of them hot swappable in case something goes wrong? Will it fail over automatically? I am using a Windows Server 2008 and a Perc3 RAID card. I have all 146GB Seagate drives.

I have a server (HP) running SBS 2008. It came with 4 same sized disks and RAID controller.
The server is in production. Can i setup RAID 5 on the server now by using the present disk to mirror

rightnow I have 1 basic drive with 120 Gb.
and about 300 Gb of unallocated space.
This is a Hardware RAID
