RAID0 - partial recovery (parameters?)
Posted: Tue Nov 22, 2016 3:11 am
I'm new to recovering files from RAID, so please excuse my ignorance.
I have a RAID0 array that needs recovery (the motherboard controller broke). I can see the individual disks, which I've placed on new controllers on PCIE cards, and I'm pretty sure the HDD's are not faulty (I did a sector analysis twice using different methods within the last month, before the array broke).
I've been able to reconstruct the array in R-Studio using the Create Virtual RAID-->Create Virtual Block RAID button, and am satisfied that I have the correct HDD order (I'm placing the root HDD into the virtual array, not the partitions on it). After this, the only parameters I seem able to change are the block size (I have 64KB selected) and the block order... But the results of recovery show an incomplete recovery. It discovers the complete directory tree at a root level, but from level two and down, some branches lack any of the directory sub-structure.
Are there any other parameters I can try that might help recovery (I need to recover the directory structure, or else recovery isn't worth it to me)?
thanks!
