We took the failed disk out of the RAID array because it appears to be a hard 
failure rather than a 
glitch (all partitions containing the disk degraded at the same time).

The array contained 4 members and now contains 3 members, all in service.  We 
expect to replace it when 
we next make a trip to the colo.
