Dell R410 w/ Perc 6/i card running ESXI 5.5; Reduce number of drives

$

As the title states,

I am currently running a Dell R410 w/ ESXI 5.5, and 4 hard drives in Raid 5. This is a home lab; one of the drives failed, and rather than replace the drive, I would rather just remove the drive from the raid array.

Can anyone provide any guidance/starting point to install OMSA or something that will enable me to reduce/rebuild the raid array?

I'm pretty sure if I try to rebuild the virtual disk through PERC BIOS I will lose any data on the drive correct?

Thanks for your help.
