I'm wrapping up a new build using RAID 10 w/ (4) WD Black 2tb HDD's, and after having installed and updated software, and copied my data from my old machine to the new one, Intel RST is telling me I have a problem with the array. One of the 4 HDD's has an error.
Volume 1: Degraded
Port: unknown
Port location: unknown
Status: missing
Mobo is Asus X99-Deluxe II. I set up the RAID 10 in Asus BIOS. That went smooth and easy. Created the volume number and name in Windows Disk Management. Copying data to new volume went smoothly.
At one point Intel RST had given me the option to run a function to rebuild the volume. I restarted to see if the same errors came up, and the same HDD is showing an error, but I'm not getting the option to rebuild. My data is still safe on the old machine.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is my first build with RAID.
Questions:
Is the disk faulty, and do I need to replace it? How to determine if the disk is bad (it's brand new)?
Is the disk OK, and do I need to rebuild the volume, and then copy the data to it again?
Is it possible the SATA port of the mobo is faulty?
Is it possible the SATA cable or the power is faulty?
Thanks in advance for any advice and guidance. Much appreciated. mpp
