Hello, all,

I've done some reading on this but nothing really satisfied my situation. I got a B690 Asus mb and I used to have two disks running in raid 1 from the bios.

I took one of them out, to move data somewhere else and my idea was to add the drive back before ever turning the PC on again. Well guess what, I forgot to add it back and moved on with my life. Now I'm wondering if it is safe to just add it back and recreate the array, both disks are almost synced, minor to no data differences between them.

Is it usually safe to just pop it back in, I have no Idea how Raid1 will handle eventual differences found.

Thank you!
