No, when I started the ServRAID CD, I jumped over the point, where it
ask, whether the erase all drives to start a new configuration.
In the manager, I selected the new drive and added it and now I have
three drives:
A) /dev/sda Raid 1 (2 x 73 GByte) ID0 + ID1
B) /dev/sdb Raid 5 (3 x 147 GByte) ID2 + ID3 + ID4
C) /dev/sdc Volume (1 x 147 GByte) ID5
This is what I have added as pure volume and
later I will declare ID5 as HotSpare for B)

It is shown correctly.

It is REALY empty as someone has "shred" the drive entirely. But this
can not be, since I simple CPU failure on the old NEC Server would not
do such damage.

See above.

Please read my explanation above.
