Subject: Replacing a drive in a ccd array...

I have a configured ccd array of 8 9GB drives, however one of them is 
going bad.  I have a replacement drive already in the machine.  What is 
the easiest way to replace the drive?

I have thought about using dd to copy the data from the old drive to the 
new one, will this work ok?  If so, which device(s) should I copy from/to?

Any other suggestions?

TIA,
kyle.
