Re: re-stripiing sata drives
by Mick Kalber on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:37:38 pm

Thanks to all for the advice... really appreciate it. In response to my being out of touch with the industry... absolutely I am. I live in the middle of nowhere (literally) and my level of post production has been very low for some time. I've not kept up with the changes in the biz, which have obviously been substantial. It's time to upgrade and that might be happening even faster than I had imagined, given what's been happening as we've tried to restripe. We couldn't delete the raid groups, so we erased the drives individually, then the 2 raid groups disappeared. We did not repartition each drive (20 500 gig drives showing 465 Gigs each... the balance partioned as a buffer, I assume). But now the Utility Drive will either not come up at all (just keeps grinding), or, if it does, it hangs when we start to add the drives to create a new raid. When we turn off the SATA drives/enclosures, the utility comes up. We've run disk utility on the internal and it shows fine and verifies. But something is wrong with either the utility or the SATA drives or the interface, I guess. Any thots? We're stuck.

Mahalo...
