Also, I picked RAID 0 because i do / did still have backups of my essential data and setup programs on the D: drive, so even if it did die, all i lost was the OS and the installed programs, all of which are recoverable, while gaining a massive increase in read speed and very little filespace...

I thought it might be worthwhile to list what I've done so far and the results. Attempted boot without D: drive > failure, no system drive found Attempted Vista Repair > couldnt find the drive (even with drivers added) Used live USB disk to move the Boot folder from D: to C: > copyed fine but...

that was my plan too, which is great, until you get to the bit where the reason i raided the drives in the first place was read speed so i RAID 0'd. in the days of xp this (or similar) situations would be resolved from the repair console on the installation cd. I have the drivers for the raid...

Currently I have Server 2008 64bit on a system with 3 HDD's. 2 in a RAID configuration that is essentially my installation drive, and the 3rd which has essentially been my in-machine backup I want to move this HDD into another machine but the installer stupidly used it as my boot drive. i.e i...

Agreed, but as stated, this is over a dedicated patch line between the two machines so security is a non issue; it is and can only be a 2 host network

ps i would still prefer to do this in NFS simply for compatability, and the obvious FOSS advantages. esp since sftpdrive is not free

Sounds good, trying it now; Any idea about how much of a speed difference there will be between NFS and SFTP?

i want to map the drive

I've considered SCP and yes i do want to map the drive, but scp would need cygwin on the workstation, which isnt what i want. Dont really care about mantaining passwords. Because this is a dedicated line, i can configure the NFS server to only accept one interface so I would even be content...

Which edition? I'm on enterprise and is sitting there quite happily

Ok, I'm not sure how much cross platform knowledge is floating about, but what i need is a fast (read:not samba) file transfer system (aiming at NFS) between 2 virgin systems. Server 2008 Enterprise Edition, and Solaris 10 x86 Now, I would class myself as a windows poweruser, but i am by no...
