Has anyone had the pleasure of swapping out a bad drive (solid amber light) on a Server Edition DL360? Since the drive in position 2 is still good (and server still up), will the replacement be as straightforward as hot-swapping a replacement drive that is the exact same piece of hardware (spare part#)? Or is it going to be a very painful process?

Any feedback on a real experience relating to this scenario would be greatly appreciated. Z
 
It is not different than any other server running a raid 1 or 5.
The DL360 has hot swappable disks so you need to order the same type of disk and put it in to get it mirrored.


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!
