I'm having some problems with my RAID array on my pc.
Quick bit of background info
Computer specs in sig
I got 2 WD 500gb green drive's for Christmas, i installed them into my computer in RAID 1 config, then installed windows 7 on a 64gb partition and the other 400gb as storage.
This weekend windows did its automatic update and restarted the computer early this morning to install the updates. When i woke up and logged on to my computer i noticed files i had put on my desktop the day earlier were missing. I tried a system restore thinking it was the update that messed up my files.
The problem
When it restarted i seen the raid controller complaining that the array had degraded, i logged on again an looked in disk management but the other drive wouldn't show. So i restarted again and now i have an extra two drives showing in My Computer.
I have found that the files i had on the desktop were on the other drive so i haven't lost any data, but how do i rebuild the array to get them mirrored again?
Any help would be grateful.
Thanks
