How to rebuild raid-configuration entry on hdd

Hello everyone,

because of a failed windows-boot one of my raid0-hdds is not properly dedected, but marked as "non-raid" hdd instead.

I guess some of the raid-configuration on the hdds boot-sector was lost (I don't know about the specific techniques intels onchip-raid use though).

My question is how to rebuild the raid-entries on the hdd, if that's possible.

Here is a screenshot from the "intel Matrix Storage Console":

The controller is ICH8R, ICH9R or ICH10R raid-controller, I have access to linux to solve this problem if necessary.

Best regards,

Michael Sieberer

The screenshot didn't come through. Which motherboard is this on?

It's an ASUS P6T WS Professional, I'll look for the screenshot.

//EDIT:

I managed to do it. As both HDDs were identical, just copying the first HDDs RAID-Metadata to the failed one did the job.

Thank you anyway
