Nothing can be said unless the data on the disks has been inspected. That's why I recommend you to go to our techsupport.

LDM (Logical Disk Manager) = Windows software RAID in your case. There may be other types of LDM volumes in other cases.

Ok. What's an ldm volume?

Stop creating any virtual Block RAID - that won't do any good. I can tell from your video that R-Studio found LDM partitions in two images. R-Studio normally should've created an LDM volume automatically, but didn't, for reason unclear to me. That needs a more detailed investigation into this problem. Please contact our techsupport with this problem and provide a link to this topic. They'll help you to solve the problem. They may request some information about your system, which I think isn't a good idea to publish in our forum.

It was an attempt to force them into a block, but I had no control over the RAID settings like I do with the other drives.

What is Virtual Block RAID1?

Thank you for the help. Here is a screen capture of me showing how the process works with any drive other than the imaged drives. You can see that the interface just disappears and is no longer accessible.

I'd like to see the panel after you load the images just into R-Studio, not to try to create any virtual RAID. Just loaded images.

I would like to see this too. I can load physical drives, but the images I made don't seem to load properly. If I try to drag them or add them from the autodetect raid block interface, the whole interface disappears. If I test it with other drives, including jump drives, they add just fine.
