I had an old computer with a hardware RAID1 data disk. My system board died and I am moving the two physical disks to a new system board. The RAID setup on the new board is different and does not recognize the two disks. So my new system (Windows 7 Home Premium Edition) has two physical disks listed as "Dynamic / Invalid". Since Home Edition doesn't support Dynamic I moved one of them to my Windows 7 Ultimate system and it also displays "Dynamic / Invalid".
I am back at my Home Premium system and looking at the Dynamic / Invalid drive that holds my data. (Yes I have a backup, but due to the failing system board the backup has not completed in two weeks, so I'd rather get my live data rather than my Memorex data.) Is there a way to take a RAID1 disk to a new system and read the data without recreating a RAID setup? I've read all about converting dynamic disks to basic disks, but this really wasn't "dynamic" before. This new system just displays 'dynamic'. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
