Title: recover files from RAID 0 array?
Post by: kdunc on December 03, 2007, 09:11:59 PM
I apologize if this is a repeat question. I couldn't find an answer. I built a AMD 64 computer with a Gigabyte MB for my dad about 4 years ago. The board or CPU went tu last week. I hated setting up the Gigabyte board so I replaced it with a ASUS AM2 board. Is there any hope in getting the bios set up to recognize the array that is already established on the 2 WD 80GB HD's?

i am pretty sure that you will need to re-build your array, reformat your drives and reinstall your OS. if you bought the EXACT same motherboard, you might be able to pull it off, but since you got a completly different motherboard, i doubt you will be able to simply pop the hardrives back in and start using them, at least not without some serious side effects.

That's the wrong answer...  :(   At least I wish it was.
