Seatools dos and raid oddity
Posted: July 24th, 2012, 10:59
Hi crew,
Just a curiosity I have that someone may have an answer for.
I had created a 4tb raid0 volume [2 x 2tb seagate barracuda] on a intel c600 controller, then removed them from that m/b and connected them one at a time [disconnected all other drives] to an older m/b with a ICH5 controller, booted and checked that the controller was not in raid mode and booted seatools dos to erase sector 0 only.
Then reconnected them back to the c600 controller and was surprised to see that the controller still saw both hdd's as member disks in raid config. when I was expecting them to show as non-member disks.
What have I missed?
