A method, apparatus, and computer program product for performing a set of operations on a data storage device is provided. A data storage device is flagged as suspect. The adapter suspends the suspect data storage device from participation in the RAID array, assigns the suspect data storage device to a pool of data storage devices to be retested, selects a data storage device from a pool of spare data storage devices, rebuilds contents of the suspect data storage device on the selected disk drive, assigns the substitute data storage device to the RAID array, invokes a diagnostic test on the suspect data storage device, and analyzes the diagnostic result. Responsive to the diagnostic result exceeding a threshold, the suspect data storage device is repaired. The adapter assigns the repaired data storage device to the pool of spare data storage devices and increments a counter of the repaired data storage device.
