Hello list,
I just replaced my home server and moved the disks from the old one over to the
new one. In the old server, 4 of the disks were connected to a twa (3Ware 9550)
controller, which of course has it's own way of marking units/volumes on those
disks.
Before you start yelling at me,
Does gpart recover ada4 help at all?
Be warned this could edit the partition on the disk and make it worse, but I've
had success in the past with it.
Regards
Steve

I realise I only implied a fairly critical difference between the old and new

Really, the easiest way would be to temporarily install the old RAID controller
and copy the data off the array.
Well, that would mean I'd have to assemble the old server again, as
the controller is not compatible with the hardware in the new one.
