System is AMD 2000+ on MSI KT3-ultra raid MB
Set up as raid 0 on ide 3 and 4, each with an IBM 80 GB drive, approx
1 year old. Raid backup done on removable 200GB for off site storage.
Anyway, I was doing a routine backup from the Raid to the backup drive
of new files. I also started to burn some of those files from the
RAID to a CD at 16X. The 200 GB is on a promise PCI card that came
with the drive as is the CD burner. At some point the system froze
prior to completing the CD or copying all the files to backup drive.
Upon reboot, system (win 2K SP3) ran chkdsk on the backup drive and
recovered all but one file. On the raid set, it said that the MFT was
corrupt. When I look at the drives on disk manager, it shows one of
the IBM's as a stripe set and the other as a normal logical drive, but
both are correctly called *H*. The main menu of disk manager
indicates a stripe set of 153.3GB that is 100% free. The setup
diagnostics and disk manager diagnostics all indicate that everything
is fine and healthy. But when I click on *H* in file manager (remnant
of NT3.51), it says "the wrong disk is in the drive."
Ideas anyone before I start over completely? I did lose some files
which I would like back, but it isn't the end of the world if I don't
get them.
TIA
Bob
