Data Recovery RAID 5 - Intel
Posted: Wed Jul 18, 2012 6:06 pm
I had a RAID-5 setup (3 disk) on a Intel X58 board. I moved the RAID to a newer board (Z77) and Intel's software is now reporting the raid as failed and two of the disks are supposedly not members anymore.
I created a virtual block raid on r-studio and loaded the 3 disks. I partially scanned the disk and it found a partition and a couple of files but when I try to recover the files they don't recover properly. Images cannot be opened in neither the previewer or any photo software. I'm a complete noob to using this program or even understanding RAID-5 setups. The entire array is 3, 2TB drives. Do I have to fully scan these before the files will recovery properly or am I screwed?
