Well, RAID vendors are very reluctant to reveal their default settings, devil knows why.
Usually, I recommend creating another RAID with default parameters and look at them in the RAID management console, but I'm not sure it's possible for this case.

Does anyone have any technical details on how the RAID on the VTRAK m500 is arranged? We had a multiple drive failure and even after sending the drives for data recovery my arrays do not come online. I have 14x1TB drives in single Disk Array with 7 logical RAID 5 arrays across them. I am now imaging all 14 drives in hopes that i can build the array virtually with R-Studio to recover the data. The data on the logicals is either NTFS or VMFS

Data recovery firms have quoted approx $20,000 - $40,000 to recover this system and i need to make some attempts to get it done cost effectively first.

After the failed drive recovery i should be OK to bring up the array in critical with only 1 drive dead but its not co-operating.

Any help is appreciated on how i can rebuild this in Rstudio.
