it's likely to be the raid backplane has failed, I have had a similar recovery on an exchange box recently. We got around it by building the raid drivers into a boot disk then imaging the drives that way. in my case I was able to get the AD up and running too.
HTH! Campbell Muray encription limited -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 May 2006 17:25 To: [email protected] Subject: Recovering files from RAID 0 set I have a situation where one of the people working an investigation attempted to turn on a computer and a static shock arced through the on-off switch. The PC would not recognize any of the RAID drives inside. I pulled the CMOS battery and unplugged, then the BIOS found the drives but I'm guessing the MBR is bad or something because it detects the drives, but is unable to find the OS. I need to recover some data from the RAID 0 set. What would the best method be to do this and would it be likely that I can recover the MBR to boot the system? Windows XP SP2, SATA RAID 0 drives... Thanks for any help
