Raid 5 disk failure

Hi,

I have a raid 5 array with 6 disks. 2 failed this month.

 

When i put a new disk it tells me that i cannot add it to the existing array because it is in status: Failed

 

Is there another way to add it or do i jave to rebuild the array?

 

Thanks

    RAID 5 can take only one disk failure without loosing data. As you have 2 disk failed in RAID 5, virtual disk failed and there is no option to recover failed virtual disk by replacing drives. Hope this clarifies
