I'm hoping someone has some advice on what to do here:
I had a striped (RAID 0) Raid running windows Vista on my home computer. It decided to take a last night and stop working...
Long story short, one of the disks from my raid is ed and I need to recover the most recent track I was working on.
Is there any way to get the data off the other disk?? :conf: :conf: |

simply put, ur data is ed
Raid 0 == zero redundancy. Half your data is on the dead drive.
Raid 1 or raid 5 would of been fine. |

sigh... so i lose my new tune - which is , because it was my best one yet.
But, Lessons learned.. I am going to build a Raid 5 with Seagate 500gb drives.

if the drive decided to stop working.. maybe from a moving part either the needle or motor.. you can have the hard disks platters switched (in a clean room).. cost is about 1500$.. good business to get into:) |

Yea - I looked into it and got an outrageous quote like that as well. As good as the track was, not sure that the steep pricetag would be worth it... :(
Thanks though! |

I've also heard freezing the drive overnight and hooking it up to a external drive enclosure may work.. . np |
