If the RAID is in Degraded status, user can rebuild the RAID to recover data. Besides, you can check which HDD is offline by Physical disk. As below, I created RAID5 by NO.1,2,3 HDDs, and the Physical disk column showed the rest HDDs of the Array. That means NO.1 HDD is offline, and you should replace it with a new one.
