Hmh, ok. My wording was indeed odd.
Does anybody know how I can "crash" the raid-5 volume _without_
removing hot-swap disk from enclosure? Camcontrol stop only stops
the disk for a moment, then it spins up again. I don't want to
physically remove disk because it's risky business and probably can
be one source of problems I had with raid-5 volume. There should be
another way.
