It may be an OMSA issue. OMSA does not always update hardware status correctly. You can try restarting the OMSA services. They should all start with DSM in the list of services.
I would boot to the controller BIOS to be certain the disks are not detected properly. If they are still not detected properly in the controller BIOS then it may be a slot issue. Try the drives in another slot if available. The original disk failure may have been a slot failure, you may want to test that disk in another slot before throwing it away.
