Raid Array Showing Degraded

I have a Marvell Raid array with 3 disks. The bios Marvell software shows "degraded". Running the disk verify fails on one drive, but is OK on the third one. The second disk shows a status of "Spare". How Do I remove the bad drive and replace it?

You need to remove the faulty drive and fit a new one. When you re-power the system providing you have configured the raid at 2+! it will start rebuilding the drive from the data on the other two. Make sure you have a valid backup just in case.

Check your documentation that came with the software.
