Subject: Cloning Dynamic Disk

 

Hi All,

 

I have a Win 2003 server that had two SATA drives set up as mirrored using
the disk manager in Windows 2003.  The second drive failed.  Since I was low
on disk space anyway, I purchased two new drives and was going to clone the
good drive to one of the new drives, and then set them up as a mirrored pair
using the hardware RAID on the Dell server.  

 

The only problem is that since it was mirrored in Windows it is a Dynamic
disk.  Acronis won't recognize it, indicating it can't use Windows dynamic
disks.  Windows won't let me convert it back to Basic.

 

Does anyone know of a disk cloning tool I can get my hands on quickly that
will clone a dynamic disk? Or have any other workarounds?

 

Thanks.
