The present invention provides a disk fault processing method in a disk array system and a data reconstruction method, including: the disk of the disk array generates read-write faults; the fault data block is located, the residual correction data of the fault disk is retained, the fault information table is checked, the strip of the faulty data block whether existing other fault data blocks or not is judged, if yes, the disk array system is provided to a ''read-only mode'', forbidding user execute write operation, if not, the position information of the fault data block is recorded in the fault information table, then whether a redundancy data disk existing in the disk array system or not is judged, if not, entering in the ''degradation'' operation mode, otherwise, the fault data block is processed with data reconstruction, recovering the fault data.
