i have a single harddisk on my "Promise MBFastTrack 133 Lite" onboard raid controller. it shows me the device as a 1+0 stripe raid and everything works fine - but now i want to take it to another computer and use it on an IDE port - but that doesn't work (can only read parts of it, some problems with indices ect.) the hd has no defect! it's 100% ok. is the problem, that you can't use a hd written on in a raid setup on an ide port? tia
yes, they/it will need to be reformatted on a normal ide port or you have to put the promise card and drives as same setup in the other machine once formatted in RAID on one controller they will only work properly in RAID on the same controller (usually) until you format them differently on a normal ide chan etc
and i used it for mirroring. simply had no port free and wanted to copy some files to my second system. man that's ***** - on my next board i'd prefer some additional ide ports in case of this raid thingy. thanks for quick answer anyways!
