Drives: Seagate IronWolf 4 TB
Number of drives in zfs pool: 2
Pool type: Mirrored
Description:
One of my two drives needs to be RMA'ed. The two drives are mirrored in a ZFS-pool.
It it possible to remove the faulty drive (putting the faulty drive into offline and disconnect it), and then use the pool (without redundancy) until I receive my new drive?
I assume it will just run in a degraded state, but earlier I've only tried replacing a faulty drive right away with a new one, then add the new drive to the pool before accessing it. Better ask here before I do something regrettable.
Thanks!
