PowerEdge R620, disk has status "Foreign", how to replace?

Good day!

I have a PowerEdge R620 server with a PERC H710P Mini (Embedded) RAID controller.

Recently, in the OMSA, one of 8 physical disks (in total I have two virtual disks RAID-10 with 4 physical disks in each) has a state "Foreign", and the virtual disk 0, in which it is included (Span 0), has state "Degraded" and Physical Disk (ST91000640SS) is not displayed in Span 0.

Virtual disk 0 is the system disk and the system is currently fully operational.

Please describe the step-by-step instructions for replacing the disk and possible problems.

Does the new disc have to be completely identical (ST91000640SS is difficult to buy now)?
