    Question about upgrading Windows and the boot drive but keeping installed apps

    I hadn't thought about editing the registry paths, but that's definitely not something I want to do so I'll probably just clone and upgrade the drive. Yeah, this is what I figured I was going to have to do. I wanted to do a clean installation, but after thinking about it I just kinda realized...

    Question about upgrading Windows and the boot drive but keeping installed apps

    Just as the title said, I'm wondering if there is a way for me to upgrade my hard drive, also upgrade Windows, and yet keep all the applications that I have installed onto a seperate drive in tact and in working condition. A while back when I got my first SSD I installed Win 7 onto a 64gb...

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    Yeah, I wish I'd read up on it a bit more before I decided to implement that setup. I think I have a good shot at retrieving the data. Once that is done I'm going to switch over to either StableBit Drive Pool or Drive Bender. I've heard good things about those.

    Ahh....even more constructive criticism I see. Were you feeling bad about yourself? Did that barb help you feel better?

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    That may indeed be the case, but I ran into another user on another site that had the same issue as I'm having and he recovered his data using Rstudio. Rstudio is able to see the storage pool and individual drives. Its just going to take a while to scan the pool.

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    I'm in the process of recovering the data at the moment so I didn't get to check some of the info like I planned. I have a mix of drives. This was just a home server setup I was using simply because I had gotten a free copy of Server 2012. So I didn't go buy any server grade hardware or...

    Nah. I hadn't done anything like that to them.

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    Oh trust me, I was aware that it was a possibilty. I'm not blindsided here. But this wasn't a simple failure. This hasn't been an issue where some drives went bad. All my research has shown this to be a bug and I'm not the first person that has had it. So while I do take some of the heat here...

    We're gonna have to agree to disagree about that one.

    This comment gives me hope because I was pondering my options and that was my next course of action. It makes me feel like I'm thinking...."in the right direction" if thats possible. Haha.

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    So after a bit more tinkering, I believe the problem definitely lies with the Virtual Disk. Earlier when I was searching for a solution to this issue, I saw where a person had a similar issue and they detached then reattached the virtual disk and that solved their issue for the most part. I...

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    Ok, so here is what I'm thinking...or my goal I should say. I want to preserve the data on my disks, and I'm thinking I may have to get rid of either a storage disk or a volume and start over from scratch. But I don't know which one to delete. If I delete the virtual disk will that erase the...

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    Well, my smart monitor tool shows that each of the drives is in proper working order. So, right now I have 8 tbs worth of disks half full. Since it seems they are working properly and maybe its the storage pool that is the issue, is there some kind of way I could maybe delete the storage pool...

    Server 2012 Storage Issue

    Yeah but I dont think that is THIS issue. I'm really having a hard time understanding how everything could just disappear. Even if one or two of the drives failed, I was under the impression that at least the rest of my data would be fine. But it seems maybe a drive failed and now the entire...
