What *sometimes* happens is that the new/replacement drive is bad or

Just as an ad-hoc idea, although it does not really answer the
interesting questions posed by your situation: would it be feasible to
use new/replacement drives that are different in some aspect from the
other (data) drives?
Actually that's one of the paths I've been pursuing as a sanity check
during my kickstart development.
Just a quick thought. Where do the new drives come from? Do you supply
them. The "different in some respect" could be a volume label or
partition type.
