Damaged sector on a hard drive - how to add drive back into pool?

$

I had a single damaged sector on a hard drive which was reported by Scanner during a drive check. I have ran chkdsk /r which found no other bad sectors (regarding my other question, this drive does not a SMART warning, that is another drive). I have had one or two issues with drives disappearing on that controller, so I am putting it down to that. Anyway, after running chkdsk, within Scanner I:

 

- Marked all Unreadable blocks Unchecked.

- Marked all Readable blocks Unchecked.

- Marked all Unchecked blocks good.

 

Then I removed the drive from the pool, have added it back in, re-measured but the drive isn't being utilised in DrivePool! The drive remains all in grey.

 

So, how after having a damaged sector on a drive, do I then add the drive back to the pool?

 

Thanks.
