Message: [QUOTE="StevenG, post: 114744, member: 21197"] You have a Raid Array setup which is different to an ordinary one disk Win-10 OS, you have to restore your Raid differently. See “Macrium Reflect and RAID systems” here: [URL]https://knowledgebase.macrium.com/display/KNOW7/Macrium+Reflect+and+RAID+systems[/URL] of how to as it states this: The default [B]WinPE[/B] rescue environment supports some (notably Intel Matrix and NVidia RAID), but not all, RAID controllers. Generally speaking, the WinPE rescue environment provided by Macrium Reflect does not support most RAID controllers as shipped. If your PC uses RAID then you may well need to add drivers to the WinPE environment by using the Create Rescue Media wizard. You can also use “Acronis” and do this as I only have experience with Acronis: -Power down the system -Remove my current array and note their orientation, connected to which SATA port, etc. -Install my new drives -Start my machine, enter the RAID Configuration Utility - Ctrl+M, Ctrl+I... which ever it is for your controller (Do not boot into windows) -Mark the drive as RAID members -Choose your stripe size -Create the array Save and exit There are only two things that will happen next -Either your system will reset completely and POST... in which case I'd enter BIOS and confirm boot order looks good or (more likely) windows will start -I'd visit Disk Management and see what you've got there -You should have an unformatted array All you want is an array that appears as a single disk Get your Boot CD and back up image ready -Restart from your boot CD, select restore -Single partition - restore the entire partition -Extend it to the full size of the disk or desired size of the partition you want to create -If the drive has multiple partitions, restore the partitions one at a time sequentially making each partition the size you want [/QUOTE]
