Critical Storage Alert on one of my hosts

I've recently applied Update 4 to my VI3 cluster.  The upgrade went smooth, and everything has been running fine for about 3 weeks now.  I noticed yesterday that one of my hosts was reporting a critical state.  When I use VC to check the health status I see that the critical alert is coming from Storage.  The alert that I get is:

 

 

Disk Drive Bay 1 Drive 1: in Critical Array - Assert

 

 

This message appears for Drive 1 - Drive 7.  The host does not have 7 disks.  It has 4x73GB 15k SAS drives configured in a RAID5, in slots 0-3.  The server is not reporting any errors, and Open Manage also reports no errors.  I tried searching the community, but I wasn't able to find a post with a similar issue.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  This problem does't seem to be affecting the server, but I'd like to get it cleared up.  I've attached a screen, of the alert, from VC.
