Help...Repairing Raid0+1 on Abit KG-7 Raid question!

I have a box running Win2K server. It is using an Abit KG-7 raid mobo. It has one 40GB drive on the IDE0 and a cd-burner on IDE1. It has 4 Seagate 40gb drives on the other two raid controllers (2 Seagates on IDE3 and 2 Seagates on IDE4.) One of the seagates went bad (the secondary master) and I need to replace it. I formatted a new hardrive (same model number) and put it in. My question is how do I join that disk to the array and have everything back to normal. Do I need to go into the Highpoint controller bios and rebuild anything? Thanks!
 
ok, i am not sure if i remember how this works, but RAID 0+1 means that you have made two RAID 0 stripes and they are mirrors of each other. if that is the case, then one RAID stripe is good and the other is corrupt. you need to enter the highpoint BIOS or use the highpoint software to rebuild that mirror stripe.
 
Having only tried this on a promise RAID card, I would say, enter the bios, find the rebuilt array option, and run this,

Expect around 1-1.5 hour rebuild time 😛
