    If you hover your mouse over the disk you should see some stats.

    Your logs show that disk 3 (one of your WD20EARS disks) has failed. It has 945 reallocated sectors and a current pending sector count of 695. I would suggest replacing this e.g. with a WD20EFRX.

    Your smart_history.log would suggest this disk was failing possibly as far back as April. Certainly by May/June.

     

    Do you have a backup?

Degraded means there is no raid redundancy, so any disk failure will result in loss of the volume.

 

How many volumes do you have? (with xraid you'd only have one).
