[luau] raid1: Disk failure on hda5, disabling device. HELP

[Michael_Bishop/FARRINCS/HIDOE at notes.k12.hi.us]

Don't you mean /dev/hdb5, notice the b. Isn't that a second hard drive? If
so, can't he just toss in a new drive and then mirror hda onto hdb? I am
new to this so excuse me if this is a ignorant question. Thanks.

If your drive is truly failing, you will need to replace hda
completely. /dev/hda5 is just one partition on the drive.

You can try to reinitialize the partition and add it back to
the mirror if you think the drive is physically OK, but the
filesystem got corrupted somehow.
