Reverting RAID 0 back to single drives
Posted by Marie on August 4th, 2003


I have a new Dell Dimension 8300 with 2 120 GB hard drives configured
for RAID 0. I'm having second thoughts about putting my data in
jeopardy with this type of setup. I haven't put any of my own programs
or data on this new computer. How can I revert RAID 0 back to 2 single
drives? Thanks for your help!

Deletion/Creation of RAID arrays are data destructive. All programs and data
will be wiped clean. Once you've eliminated the array, you'll then have to
partition and format each drive. I have highpoint raid onboard and I use
CTL-H to access it as system is booting. You may be able to access yours in
a similar fashion.
