ReadyNas Duo V2
Hi
Recently one of my 2tb became corrupted which was reported to me via email.
I removed the drive, put it in an external caddy and deleted the volumes on this drive using a Windows 7 machine.
I have placed it back into the ReadyNas Duo v2 and it has started rebuilding it.
Its running really slow to rebuild the drive (170 kbs), am I best off letting it attempt to rebuild or just buying a new drive.
Both drives are identical and I used the HCL for reference when buying them.
Appreciate the help in advance.

Did you test the drives with vendor tools? - JohnnyD1984AspirantApologies I didnt get a email originally - the NAS device wouldnt load after a reboot, and I managed to work out through general troubleshooting that one of the drives was causing the drama.
What vendor tools do you mean, like western digital tools to check the drive? - StephenBGuru - Experienced User

Thanks for your help :)
