Changing IDE raid controllers
I want to use two drives from an older machine which are in an IDE Raid
array on an Adaptec 1200 Raid card. They will go into a new machine using an onboard Promise controller. Saving data is not an issue. Is simply deleting the Raid array with the Adaptec controller sufficient to allow the Promise controller in the new machine to create a new array? Or is there some hidden issue I'm unaware of? Thanks, Eric

Deleteting the RAID array first using the Adaptec controller is all you should have to do. --- Kevin Chalker, Owner (KC COMPUTERS) E-mail: Web: www.kc-computers.com Internet dealer since 1991!!!

The RAID formats will presumably be entirely different, so I doubt the Promise controller would notice or care that the drives were part of an array previously, even if you didn't delete the array on the Adaptec card.. -- Robert Hancock Saskatoon, SK, Canada To email, remove "nospam" from Home Page: http://www.roberthancock.com/
