There is no limitation in hardware or software as per Adaptec Ive called and am having many email threads with techs. But what were attempting to do they havent tried or will support.

I wonder how they are imaging HD in the lab???

The drive space you lost is there its just an unallocated partition on each drive.
It would seem that the OS is retaining the drive size and partition tables of the original drives (that was the case for me). Breaking this is the key. Adaptec says in theory it can be done. At this point im tempted to see if i can find a replacement drive with the os on it as this seems to be the only way. Id like to try and expand the partitions to recover the lost space but i currently have no where to dump all this data too.
