Re: Recover RAID

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Ok, I'm learning a lot about raids and what to do, and what not to do.  Looking at some info I had before, md1 was 200GB in size, which makes sense, but it was only 39GB full.  The way I repartitioned drive 1, I probably overwrote only about 11GB.  Does that make it any easier to recover any amount of the raid?  Is there some sort of "recover lost partitions" option in Linux or gparted?

Thank you!
Jeff

The data on a raid0 stripes across both drives as though it were one big
cylinder.  You aren't going to make md1 work work with one missing.  You should
be able to recover what was on md0 (a raid1) from either of its members.
