What is the best way to replace a disk within a RAID 1 configuration without failing to boot?
First, verify the integrity of each drive before proceeding to set up the RAID and confirm the hardware compatibility of the components.
Use identical drives, either set up an SSD alone OR a RAID with HDDs only, to use compatible technologies to avoid future data loss.
Get in contact directly with the equipment manufacturer of the HDD or SSD to confirm if they have a diagnostic tool that will ensure that the drives are working properly.
