SCSI imaging

[crecomp]

Hi all,
i have been using copyr (purchased)for a while for imaging IDE and SATA drives with no issues, i have recieved some hotswap scsi drives that are faulty and need to image them to try and recover the info on them.
i have obtained the latest build of copyr(purchased) that also works with scsi drives but the software cant see the hard drives,, i think the issue is that i am running the drives through an external scsi box where i can plug the drives into this box and then with a scsi card into the pc and so as they are not connect4ed directly to a controller maybe i cant see the drives to work with them,
can anyone recommedn some good software to image these scsi drives.?
the issue i am having with the srives is that there were drives in a striped array, i am using r studio to try and rebuild the array but am only getting part info of the drives, for example i can see some pictures in preview mode, they look fine but as soon as you click on the image to enlarge it you see breaks through the picture as if info is missing from one drive, any help in dealing with this would be greatly appreciated, just to let you know i have tried runtime software raid rebulder and am having the same issue,
thx

I usually use R-Studio for Imaging SCSI Disks.

r-studio should see the drives as a raw disk even as they are not mounted by the OS. Last time I tried copyr, it could only access drives that were mounted by the OS, however, maybe they have added this functionality.

A good hardware device for hot swap SCSI is the tableau T4. You need an adapter to go from 80 pin with power (hot swap) to 68 pin. The box then mounts the drive as a raw disk over USB. It's around $400 but well worth it. Also has optional read only settings.

Once you can pull the images with R-studio, try rebuild virtual RAID 5 and copy one of the existing images to take the place of the missing disks. It works, you just need to know the type of controller used so you can setup the right block settings. good luck
