On approximately 8/10/2009 12:12 PM, came the following characters from the keyboard of Thomas Wouters: > I'm still waiting on a replacement controller, so it wasn't to be today. > Hopefully tomorrow, if the hardware supplier has one in stock. Still no > news on whether we have any chance at all on getting the old data back. Sadly, redundant hardware controlled by non-redundant hardware, configured to be redundant without a backup of that configuration, isn't all that reliable :( It is hard to get redundancy correct and complete, so you can't just hear the word "RAID" and conclude that it is reliable, or fully redundant, without proper system management. That's why I still recommend RAID 0 with appropriate backup procedures, or RAID 1... but only if the RAID 1 is operable by removing the RAID controller, and attaching the disks to regular controllers, and having them be readable... sadly, many RAID 1 configurations do not permit that. -- Glenn -- http://nevcal.com/ =========================== A protocol is complete when there is nothing left to remove. -- Stuart Cheshire, Apple Computer, regarding Zero Configuration Networking
