I had a PSU problem on a desktop PC running a Promise IDE RAID controller with 2 x IDE drives on a stipped array ...
after replacing the faulty PSU i was sad enough to notice the RAID volume was unreadable this is common when one of the two discs of the array goes bad but S.M.A.R.T and diagnostics on the RAID controller showed both discs as fine so i tried a different approach, after looking around a bit 1. First problem was to try re-import the discs as foreign to the partition and see if the dynamic status changes BEWARE : do NOT use Operating System to convert Dynamic to Basic, you will lose all data NOTICE : do NOT recreate an array clearing drives WARNING : do everything at your own risk, this could seriously damage your data ! so, here we go : --------------------  |

this did not work like it should so we are brought to part
2. Convert Dynamic ( and unreadable ) disc to Basic without losing data and in my case, NO BACKUP in the middle or conversion / extraction from a stripped ( RAID-0 ) array ! to manage this, i used AOMEI Dynamic Disk Converter Pro the results ? all data is back, i just run CHKDSK once again and did not even lose files to chains !!! -------------------- |
