i have an 8 month old e310 with western digital 80gb hd's & datasafe. a drive just crashed. i bought a new 160 seagate hd but apparently in raid1 drives must be the same size. after an hour with tech support & being cut off i'll try here. apparently the raid1 bios needs to see 2 drives or it wont run, so the system is down

 

so if i buy a new wd drive from dell & replace it, will the good drive repopulate the new one? is it this easy?

 

thanks,
