The simple answer is depends.
You will need to locate a drive is similar to the failed one. It must be at least the same size or larger.
Once you have installed it, boot up the machine and look for the post screen for the raid controller. There should be a button combination like Control-Z to get into the raid management screen.
Once in, your new drive should appear in the disk menu. It probably will show it as a failed drive. Select initialize and then rebuild. If all goes well, your new drive should rebuild in a few hours.
Most of the time you can reboot your machine and boot into the OS. The raid will rebuild while running. Keep in mind that there will be a lack of performance at this time. Avoid running any disk intensive apps.
