+### Understand the alert
+
+This alert presents the number of unsynchronized blocks for the RAID array in crisis. Receiving this alert indicates a high number of unsynchronized blocks for the RAID array. This might indicate that data on the array is corrupted.
+
+This alert is raised to warning when the metric exceeds 1024 unsynchronized blocks.
+
+### Troubleshoot the alert
+
+There is no standard approach to troubleshooting this alert because the reasons can be various.
+
+For example, one of the reasons might be a swap on the array, which is relatively harmless. However, this alert can also be triggered by hardware issues which can lead to many problems and inconsistencies between the disks.
