Ergin,

All you need to do is insert the new disk and the RAID will be rebuilt. You will see the light on the disk flashing during the rebuild and I believe you can view the status using the "show hardware" command.

Replacing Disks in a RAID

Connection supports only replacing a defective  disk in a RAID with a blank disk to repair the RAID. Replacing disks in a  RAID for any other reason is not supported.

---

Caution Do  not replace a disk in a RAID with a disk that contains data, even if  the replacement disk was originally a disk in the same RAID in the same  server.

HTH
