Perfectly good drive being wrongfully accused as dead?
Is it possible to have a perfectly good drive being kicked out of the raid array and being labeled as dead simple because it lagged too much and timeout due to being a green drive and slow performance...
I have mixed green/red drives and 7200 rpm drives in the same RAID array and not seen any issues. This was on a pro-6 though, not an NV+, and the 7200 RPM were seagates, the slower were WDC.
You might try removing power from the NAS for a while (15 minutes maybe) and then restarting.
If that doesn't resolve it perhaps try powering down, removing all drives, and putting just the LP drive in a different slot. Then see if the install works. If it does, try moving the LP to the current slot (NAS powered down) and see if it works there. You could potentially have bad slot.
