I have a Pegasus 2 R8. While replacing a drive that had a failed I accidentally opened the drive above it and it failed in the process. I have replaced the first drive. 

I have 8x 6Terabyte drives installed. 

The event information is saying the logical drive has been placed offline. Possible data loss. 

The disk array says its degraded and when I click on Rebuild it says the logical drive is offline. 

 

Not sure where to proceed from here.

The RAID level is RAID5

Glenn,

Basically, RAID5 level only allows one disk failure so there might have data loss risk.This issue needs to be analyzed with the help of subsystem report of the unit to find out the issue.You can call technical support at 408-228-1500 or reach out through support case at  https://support.promise.com/.
