Question : Problem: How to replace and configure HP Netserver LP 1000r HDDs?

This question relates back to another question I asked regarding this server.  The original question is here: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Hardware/Servers/Q_23976921.html .

I received 2 new HDDs.  The question is:
How do I install them?

The server is still up and running and we can of course shut it down temporarily but how do I go about replacing these drives without losing everything?

To be honest I am not even sure how to tell which physical drive is bad once I open up the case.

Is there a certain software I am going to need in order to configure these replacement drives?

Ideally I would like to have one of the two replacement drives mirroring the current working drive and then have the additional HDD as extra storage.

Any help would be appreciated.

Please take a look at the link in my original post and you will see an image I posted showing that there are 2 red lights on the server indicating that 2 of the 3 HDD's are bad.

I don't know HOW bad meaning I don't know if they can be reconfigured but the red lights are on and steady.
