I don't think you can. In theory you can remove the broken one, and you
can add a _new_ empty one -- I say 'in theory' because you seem to have
demonstrated both of those actions failing.

But I don't believe we have yet implemented anything to let you
_replace_ a failed disk and recreate its original contents.

I had that on my TODO list for some time after I get the basic RAID[56]
operation working.
