raid degraded, now no option to rebuild

One of my raid drives became unplugged, so it was defined as degraded. I plugged it back in, but I see no option in the Nvidia control panel to rebuild it. When I go into the BIOS, I hit R to rebuild but it takes me back to the list of drives. I read online that I should delete the drive that was unplugged from the array and then try the rebuild - BUT, when I select that drive and click on delete, it says "Delete array?" I don't want to do that - just that one drive. Anyone ever come across this? Should I delete that drive even if it says "delete array"? I already took everything off that drive, but it's still scary - 10 years of family photos, etc.
 
that seems lame - most raids you plug in a replacement drive or do the ole pull out and plug back in and it starts rebuilding automatically.

how long did that raid last btw?
 
Is this array RAID 1 or RAID 5 or ?

Also, I assume the system is still bootalble, since you said the array was only "degraded". Is the NVidia storage manager in Windows any more helpful than the RAID BIOS?

this is a data drive - not booted. I id not open the Windows storage manager, but the nvidia storage manager. Can I rebuild with Windows?
