I built a RAID 1 hard drive using a 2.5" enclosure.
after 10 years, one of the drives failed because that indicator light blackened. another hard drive seems good.
Now my PC workstation can not recognize this RAID 1 hard drive.
So my only way is to pull out the two hard drives and read them from an adapter.
any experience to share in this scenario?

Is it a hardware or software RAID?
Linux can mount a single drive of a mirror, been quite a while but I used mdadm to mount it.

it is hardware RAID. I initialized and use it on Windows 10.

1) Replace the faulty disk and rebuild the RAID "array"
2) Yank out the faulty disk and change the connection from RAID to single disk

my question is how to rebuild this array?

The trickiest bit is figuring which drive is the dead one. With SSDs they don't whir anymore and they stopped putting lights on them so a dead one mimics a live one really well.
It's possible connecting a new drive exactly like the old one will trigger the array to rebuild itself on boot.
Pretty much replace the bad drive and fiddle with RAID in BIOS/controller though.

Seriously though, years ago I was living in Melbourne (Australia) and was away in Sydney over a weekend. My home was in a ground floor unit with 4 floors above me. Unbeknownst to me, that weekend, the sewerage system blocked and all of the raw sewerage from the 4 floors above me backed up and came out of my toilet. I arrived home late Sunday night, and there was a stench at the front door. When I opened it, all of the rooms, from my view point were flooded and the wall of stench that hit me was indescribable. I could not enter, even after it was professionally cleaned and all furniture and belongings were replaced. I had to move.

Ouch, even water without the faeces can wreck a place good.
An uncle once had his house flooded because he didn't tie a bolt fast enough or some such.
The water came from the attic and left no floor untouched.
He had to strip his whole house after that, new floors, new wallpapers, new furniture, everything.
Of course after that it didn't smell so bad, but some of the damage can still be seen to this day (happened 10 years ago or some such).

I used to live in a town that was on the (prone to spring flooding) Minnesota River. There was a restaurant situated right on the river. The upper dining level was generally above the flood line but the lower level which was mostly storage was often below flood level.
Every spring the owner would empty the basement and if the river flooded he would fill the basement with clean water to a foot or so above the flood level. This meant clean water seeped out of his basement which kept the dirty flood water out. It sounds crazy, but apparently his clean up costs were much less. Crazy like a fox I guess.

The Netherlands had a huge flood in '53 (knows as "The Disaster").
The place I live in (a coastal island) was hit hard.
At some old houses, you can still see how high the water was (in many places, only the roof was safe since we live below sea level, next to the sea).
A friend of mine actually did not buy a house because of that reason, the walls were pretty porous from that time.

He should've hired a plumber (but I expect he has since realised that!) 😉

A few years ago about a dozen full portaloos came off the back of a truck near here, but your one definitely looks to be a bigger hazmat job.

I once saw some drunk teens push over a portable toilet just after their friend entered
Guy could've died from all the bacteria in there.
With "friends" like that you really don't need enemies.
Not sure what happened to them after that.
That venue never had a portable toilet again though.

When my dad was a kid no one had running water so the bathroom was an outhouse. A common Halloween prank was to move someone's outhouse back off the pit. So if anyone tried to use it that night ...
Good fun until old man Cooper moved his before the pranksters got to it. As my dad told it, a couple of his friends fell in the pit when they went to move it.

A cousind of my grandpa had a field with some fig trees along the road. Every year the trees got empty by the tourists when going downtown from the camping place.
He started inserting small hot chillies in the figs that were low enough to get caught by the people without big effords.
Was funny to see them get the figs, bite them and then start spitting, swearing and more...

When I was very young and just married we lived with in-laws in a single wide trailer way back in the hills of KY.
My father in-law had created a septic tank of 2 x 55 gal. drums connected together and to a drainage system.
After several years we started having problems, to find out the drums had rotted and the whole thing had caved in.
We had to dig it up, drain what waste was there using a 5 gal. bucket and then rebuild the whole thing.
Another job I had, also in KY. during college was I worked at a hog farm. Our job to replace all the boards covering the sewage drain. At lunch the boss would take us to lunch and everyone in the place would get up and leave. The owner came over one time and asked our boss not to bring workers in to lunch as it was driving his business away.
