Hard drive failure
Hi,
the Hard drive in my first bay has failed. its got a red indictor on when I look at the Volume overview.
I have it seet up as X-Raid - Raid 5.
Can I just pull out the failed hard drive and put in a new hard drive and it will resync it? is that how it works? i've tried to read the documentation but it wasn't clear.

Yup! And do it with the power on. NAS log should report the removed drive, inserted drive, then start and end of sync.

Note that it syncs automatically if the replacement drive isn't formatted.
If it is formatted, then there is a manual format step you need to do in the web UI after you insert the drive. The rest is automatic.
