YOu have not told us, what server and what OS you're running.
If it's a Dell Server (you have a Dell raid card) you can do it with 
Dell's OMSA:
http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/hardware

The webinterface lets you configure and view all Raid parts, all drive 
infos are there, too.

Note this does only work on PE* servers, not SC*.
