Solve Mirror Conflict 
When a RAID set is created, metadata which includes drive connection 
information is written to the disk. If after a disk failure, the drive that failed was 
replaced by a disk that was previously part of a RAID set (or used in another 
system), it may have conflicting metadata. This will prohibit the RAID set from 
being either created or rebuilt. In order for the RAID set to function properly, this 
old metadata must be first overwritten with new metadata. To resolve this, from 
the main RAID BIOS window select Solve Mirror Conflict, then press Enter, the 
correct metadata, including the correct drive connection information, will be 
written to the replacement disk.
