I have a DL380 G4 with 4 discs in a raid 5 config. Had a drive die right in front of Xmas. Replaced it and all seemed fine. Now one of the original hard drives LED's do not display--whereas I am 99.9% sure that the LED's were lit previously. Array Config shows that all drives are fine. LED's on the drive in question all blink when I select it from within the AC. However the drive with no LED's is also set as a "spare"--which shouldn't be since the new drive I inserted should be the "spare". The hard drive with no LED's does need a firmware update--currently HPB1. HP's site tells me I need a firmware and maintenance cd to get the HPB5 firware. Two questions...1) Is the firmware issue why the LED's might not be lit? 2)WHERE do I find the firmware/maintenace CD. HP's site isn't real clear on this. Thanks for any info and Happy New Year to all!
