Errors on S/W RAID

[Al-S]

Download your systme logs, from webGUI go to : status ->hardware -> Logs, then after you download them, try to open the logs with any software that opened compressed files ( ex: WinRAR ) and search the system logs to find a file named tests.log, you may find useful details about sda that lead you to find the drive you want.

Thanks. Downloading the logs and digging around led me (eventually) to test.log, which has this entry;

/dev/sda:

This gives me a serial number, which allows me to track the device down to Unit S000, so I'm getting somewhere.

When I come to replace this drive, as it's in a S/W RAID, is it just a matter of pulling and replacing the drive and letting the RAID rebuild, or do I need to do anything else beforehand?
