Replacement drive does not add to existing volume.
On our ReadyNAS 316, drive 5 failed and degraded the volume. I replaced it with the same 3TB drive. After adding the new drive, my only option was to destroy drive 5. Now the drive is black, with a green light, but is not part of the existing volume. The volume is still degraded. Apparently the array is Flex-RAID and I must manually add the new drive 5. It is not at all obvious to me how to add the drive to the volume. What should I do next?Solved
