I had my 1 TB RAID array divided up into multiple partitions because I needed to be using FAT32. Now I am converting it to NTFS so I wanted to merge them all together. They are mostly filled with data so I needed to do it on the fly.
I used Partition Magic to first convert the partitions from FAT32 to NTFS, then merge 3 into 1. During the process, PM asked what folder name I wanted to use for the files that got moved off the absorbed partition. Once it completed, I rebooted and everything looked fine. However, those folders that were created for the merged data are not accessible. I get a "<folder> is not accessible. Access is denied" error when trying to access them. Looking at the properties, they have a size of 0 bytes and 0 folders. Is that data gone for good? Does it look like my faith in PM was misplaced this time? -- Brian
