My matrix raid was running fine till I encountered this problem. I have three drives connected to Intel ICH10R controller.
1) Samsung Spinpoint F1 640GB
2) Samsung Spinpoint F1 640GB
3) Samsung EcoGreen F2 1TG
The 1st and 2nd drive is configured as Matrix raid. Third drive is an independent drive. I tried to run a bootable Linux from USB drive but the Linux couldnt start. So I rebooted my computer. After rebooting, I found out my RAID is gone. What happened is, RAID0 failed. The member for the array should be drive 1 and drive 2 but now drive 1 is no longer the member but drive 3 has becomed the array member thus causing that real array to fail. Im not sure why this happened but I believe my data or hard drive is still alive. I tried unplugging drive 3, changing ports, resetting BIOS and even reflashing the BIOS but Intel RAID bios still detect 2nd and 3rd drive as RAID array instead of 1 and 2nd drive.
I have some important data to save in RAID0 array but clueless how to solve the problem. Any suggestions?
