question on replacing mirrored drives

by utken . Updated 22 years, 3 months ago

Hi,

My Proliant ML 350 print server makes some grinding sound (not very laud) when it boots and once in a while when it’s running. The fan seems to be working. I don’t get any error in the Event Viewer though. I’m worried that it’s coming from the SCSI drives but I’m not sure. There’re 2 SCSI HDD (non-hot swap), mirrored. As they’re already over 3 years old, I would like to replace them before they finally fail. OS is Windows 2000 server sp3.
What is the proper way to replace those mirrored hard drive? Do I need to break the mirror first before I move that files over? Currently the drives consist of OS and print drivers.
Any input is appreciated.
