lost raid?

[nthfinity]

please help ops: ops: ops: i upgraded myself to a much larger computer case yesterday, and in the process; my computer seems to lost one of the raid 0 index files of my two raids (the other is funtioning well)

i have checked my connections numourous times, and in most configurations, and the hardware appears to be recognized... can it be saved???? ops: it seems like i can build a new array with no problem, but i think that would deleate/overwright my previous partitions

surely there must be something that can help me revert to having gobs of hdd space, and not lose all that data

im at a huge loss , but i'll survive-(thanking god i didnt move my photos to that drive)

unless there is a repair option for it then you are screwed .. wlecome to the wonderful world of raid 0... fast but no fun if it goes wrong

im going to run a few more tests tonight to find out if the boot finds the disk, but cannot find the data/recognise the hdd mount.

i sent an email to quetek, and they seem to be fairly confident that they can retrieve the data

If a single drive, you can use File Scavenger version 3 (available at www.qtcorp.com) to scan the disk number. Use Quick Search first and then Long Search if necessary. If the drives are shown separately, you will need to use the Advanced button to reconstruct the RAID. If you need us to help recover data: - Sign a waiver (will be sent) - Connect 2 drives as 2 separate non-RAID drives. - Further instructions will follow - This process will take about a day. This service will cost $350 with full money-back guarantee. Best Regards, Customer Service Team QueTek Consulting Corp Phone: +1 713 722 0584 Fax: +1 832 251 8037

This is why I never bother with RAID 0 - and if I use any other form of RAID I am sure to use hardware RAID, with an array controller that supports on-line rebuilding, and has suffiecent parity and logical drive adata stored on the disks to allow for moving /upgrading to a different controller.
