Recover Missing Volume Set
Posted: Sat Mar 13, 2021 4:44 pm
Hello there,
first a little background..
i have a 24 Disk Raid 6 Array and yesterday one of the Disks was lazy and took a little longer for the spin up.. and got thrown out of the Raid set..
the Raid went into degraded mode
normally not a big deal.. happens every few months, i just remove and re-add the drive and reboot, and the raid controller re-recognizes the missing disk, does a rebuild and everything is fine..
unfortunatelly.. yesterday i didn't get the degrades mode email and 4 hours later there was a NTFS Filesystem Failure on the System SSD.. with Bluescreen Reboot in a loop.
i did a chkdsk repair on the SSD, which fixed this problem.. and this was the time i found out that the Raid was in degraded mode..
i did the same thing as everytime. The controller did the rebuild.. but the Volume set is now missing.
a little search told me that r-studio can help me recover the volume set
but so far i couldn't fix anything..
i use r-studio in the demo mode.. and it shows me only the System SSD.. not the Raid Controller or one of the 24 HDDs..
can anyone give me a hint ?
