Hello all!
In version 8.0.0.13861 the problem was fixed.
Thank you a lot to StarWind support service and personally to Ivan Ischenko!
I hope that with every release the product will get better and better
Below is an short explanation how to recover functionality after a disk failure.
For example we have the following environment:
- labsheet1.png (22.62 KiB) Viewed 7836 times
At this time we have replaced failed disk, assign the same letter for it and have created a folder for images.
The screenshot of StarWind console:

At first, we need to delete any information about failed devices from StarWind.cfg. To do this, we need to stop StarWind Virtual SAN Service before editing StarWind.cfg. Else, after restarting service an old records will appear in the file again. I suspect, that the service writes it in the file from memory during stopping.
So, in my case, you can see records that should be deleted on the picture below:
