If you follow raid devel list you will soon learn that they dont recommend trusting the /dev/sd* naming either as it is by<br>
no means static... :)<br>
<br>
depending on your hw, they may for example hange place if you happend<br>
to have a usb disk plugged at boot and so on.<br>
<br>
so the thing to check is for example what disk is mapped as /dev/disk/by-id/*<br>
<br>
<br>
where you can match on actual disc serial number and so on...<br>
then you can be sure wich disk is failing / has failed..</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Great advice. I'll make sure the drive's serial numbers are visible without removal and then use ls /dev/disk/by-id/ to make sure I get the right one, if/when the time ever comes...<br>
