Explanation

With any drive software update, there is a risk that the drive might become unusable. For systems that support RAID0 arrays, if the drive is a member of a RAID0 array consider whether to introduce more redundancy to protect the data on that drive.

User response

If the drive is not a member of a RAID0 array, fix any errors in the event log that relate to the array. When the drive is a member of an array with sufficient redundancy, repeat the command. Alternatively, consider specifying the -force option.
