As it turns out there is a Via Raid tool that comes with the motherboard so I installed and ran it. It shows one drive in danger of losing data and which drive in the array so I least I know the culprit in this case. Since I keep good backups and may just let it run to failure and then go to warranty repair if it lasts less than warranty time. Thanks, Colonel Blip.

OK, you clearly could have destroyed the array since you had it imaged, run everest on the drives when there is no raid. > As it turns out there is a Via Raid tool that comes with the > motherboard so I installed and ran it.

I'd rather see the SMART data when you have a situation where two drives appear to have gone bad at the same time, one in the RAID and one not in the RAID. Thats a bit suspicious, tho its certainly possible and one of the bads is a maxtor which dont like running inadequately cooled. > Since I keep good backups and may just let it run to failure and then go > to warranty repair if it lasts less than warranty time. I wouldnt myself with the drive in a raid0 and one other drive looking rather dubious with lots of reallocated sectors and it being a maxtor. > Thanks, Thanks for the washup, too rare in my opinion. >> Colonel Blip <colonelblip.no.spam.please(a)bigfoot.com> wrote > >> Yes, though I'd personally boot a BART PE CD with Everest >> on it just so the raid doesnt start chucking a wobbly about >> one of the raid drives being missing etc. > > > > ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure > Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service > in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server > Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =----
