I have an ASUS P5Q motherboard with onboard Intel RAID chipset.
I have 4 1.5TB drives that I succesfully made into a RAID5 configuration and populated with data.
After installing a new video card and rebooting the Intel Storage Matrix kicked out 2 of the 4 drives on my RAID and they show up below as non-raid members. While the RAID shows 2 drives missing! The boot drive is on a separte IDE bus so the only other drives connected are the 4 sata drives that I am talking about.
How can I get these guys back onto the RAID5?
The software does allow me to do anything. This is very important data to me and I donot have an extra 4.5 TB to image the drives onto for recovery.
The drives are all new and work perfectly, I have not touched them since so I know the data is all still there. Also they are still plugged into the same ports on the Motherboard so order is kept good.
Please help
