Hello bahamas68,
The volume is degraded because there is a disk that has been removed and if it was replaced, the replacement has not synched with the one that has been left inserted. This error message means that the volume can not recover from another disk failure which is an expected behavior.
When you insert the new disk, it will add it to array, and redundancy will be restored after the resync. For now I have some questions to ask, can you still get to the admin page? If so, please post a screenshot of what you get under Volumes. I need to know the size of the disk that you have inserted as a replacement, if it is the same size as the faulty one, the RAID level, the status of both disks. If you can download the system logs, please do and send upload to wikisend.com and PM me the download link.
