You are speaking about 2 HDDs, so I conclude you are speaking about RAID 0 (without parity and fault tolerance). Effectively, you need 3 HDDs to implement it - Windows can not boot from RAIDs, so you need a separate partition for system files. Drives can be anywhere in the system (no IDE...

Your RAM chips may be faulty. Test them. I myself found GoldMemory (http://www.goldmemory.cz) good tool for doing this. ---- Wbr, Alex http://www.z-a-recovery.com/ : ZAR - FAT16/32 data recovery tool.

NT4 Workstation (Windows 2000 Pro) does not support fault-tolerant volumes, but Windows NT4 Server (Windows 2000 Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter) do support: 0. Simple volumes 1. Spanned volumes 2. RAID0 Stripe Sets 3. RAID1 Mirrored Volumes 4. RAID5 Stripe Set with Parity. ---- Wbr...

If the drive is from IDM, run IBM's Drive Fitness Tool (DFT). Tel it to erase the drive (you will lose all data on the disk, not only on the partition you are unable to format). If it's some other brand, not IBM, get HDDSPEED from http://www.xponik.spb.ru/hddspeed/index.html Run it and have it...

There is a software RAID capability in Windows NT starting from at least NT 4.0. Windows 2000 Servers also include this capability. ---- Wbr, Alex http://z-a-recovery.narod.ru/ : ZAR - FAT16/32 data recovery tool.

Assuming you have 40Gb HDD1 20Gb HDD2 you should setup a stripe as follows: 1. C: Normal Volume, first 20Gb (50%) of HDD1 2. D: Stripe Set without Parity, 20Gb (50%) of HDD1 + 20Gb (100%) of HDD2 However, failure of any drive will render the whole array (volume D:) useless with such a setup. If...

Are you sure there is no switch in BIOS Setup to disable S.M.A.R.T. monitoring? It must be there (at least I had never seen a SMART-check-capable mainboard without an ability to disable it). ---- Wbr, Alex http://z-a-recovery.narod.ru/ : ZAR - FAT16/32 data recovery tool.

http://www.powerquest.com/ I think. It is hardly free, though. ---- Wbr, Alex http://z-a-recovery.narod.ru/ : ZAR - FAT16/32 data recovery tool.

Check jumper settings. If there are two IDE channels, remove everything and set each drive on each own channel. Remember that if you are using Western Digital drives, you must remove jumpers from it to run as a single device on the channel. ---- Wbr, Alex http://z-a-recovery.narod.ru/ : ZAR -...

Please specify a drive brand and model. Some drives (especially IBMs) have a "2Gb clip" jumper, which limits disk capacity to 2Gb when set. Check for this. ---- Wbr, Alex http://z-a-recovery.narod.ru/ : ZAR - FAT16/32 data recovery tool.

Check against the following symptoms: 1. All cabling is correct. This means - disconnect all devices (incl. CDROMs), so the drive in question is the ONLY IDE device in the system. Go to BIOS, perform HDD Autodetection. Save changes and exit. Check if you still cannot boot. 2. Your disk is NOT...

If you have deleted a parition from within FDISK you should reboot ASAP. If FDISK was from Windows 9x/ME, and you seen the "checking disk integrity..." message with percentage counting, it means some of your data already kissed you goodbye. Sad but true. If you didn't see the...
