Failing HDD Move Databases to a new volume
We have a Hard Drive that is starting to show Smart Errors and would like to move the databases off that drive to replace it. I am wondering what the best method / practice is to go about vacating that disk is. I am leaning towards removing the databbase coppies that are on that volume and reseading to the new disk or to one of the spare volumes that is in the chasie.
Hi, What Exchange edition is running in your organization? Is DAG configured ?

Hi,
a fast and simple approach: move your active databases on the failure hard drive to a new/other one or set the mailbox databases active on another node.
Be sure that you have a copy of every mailbox database on another hard drive / node. Remove the database copies, replace the disk, re-configure the mailbox database copies again on the new disk.
