How to fix a bad drive

(1/2) > >>

Howdy,

I have a Buffalo NAS drive with a red light.  I believe it flashes three times.  Now, I am not 100% sure of the model  -  but I believe it's the Buffalo LinkStation Pro Duo 2.   

So, what do I do?   Buy a hard drive and pop it in (replace the bad hard drive)?    Or, is there a procedure for rebuilding?

NAS Navigator 2 has this to say:

Error:
E30: An error has occurred on disk 1
I12: The RAID array works under degrade mode

I also took a screen capture:

davo:
Buy a new disk, put it into whichever bay is show the fault, reboot the unit, log onto the setting page and rebuild the RAID.

So, I take it I'd use NASNavigator to rebuild the RAID?

davo:
No, you do this via the settings page. System - Storage - Array1.

I don't know of anyway to access a settings page.  The only thing I know is that after plugging these NAS drives into the network they show up as a network drive (Windows Explorer).  My units are pretty old - are the manuals still around somewhere?
