Are we talking DSS100 or DSS200?
Is the software up to date>
As Phil said, you should see a report from the RAID BIOS at bootup.
I've seen plenty of degraded arrays, but never seen any playback interruption. Usually it alerts you via Show Manager, and a red light on the front panel.
Next you should perform a RAID rebuild, the procedure is in the book. If it can't see the drive to rebuild, or the rebuild fails, then replace the drive with the spare one you keep on a shelf, and rebuild again. All should now be well.
If you have DSS200 with V4.2 software, I believe that the unit has the capability to auto-initiate the RAID rebuild, which is nice.
