Default Re: Rebuild Snap 2200 with Raid 0

You have a 2200, you just confirmed something for me. The 2200 is advertised as being able to boot from either drive. If you can get to the disk utility from the web interface, it may tell you which drive. Repair is easy. Just install a new drive into disk 1. And see what happens. Worst case it want boot. If it doesn't boot move it to the other position. Since you can still connect, you can monitor what happening from the Disk Utility section. One the drive is formated, and ready. Power down and install the other new drive. Once it boots off of the top drive (10000), you can safely change the drive configuration. I don't think it will allow you to change it to a raid 1 with one drive bad. But try, if no go change to JBOD.

Since it is bootable you will not have to copy the boot tracks manually.
