TI 11 Build 8052 & Intel Matrix Raid (ICHR8)

Just thought I'd let everyone know that I received an ISO from Acronis of the Boot CD (full version) that appears to fully support my Matrix Raid.

I tested validating archives and I backed up a partition on the mirrored Raid to the Secure Zone which is on the striped raid and recovered successfully.

I was also able to access and validate an archive on my NAS network drive.

Hopefully, a public release will follow shortly but for those who haven't made a BartPE image to support their Intel Raid, build 8052 seems to work for me.

 

I'm having the exact same problem and have to restore a machine ASAP - did you have to call paid support? Regular email support has been slow - last question i asked took 4 days.

Why won't they make this available? It's a pain all previous versions have seen RAID drive on Intel ICHR controllers, but of course, you can't downgrade as the 11 image files won't open.

They could simply list it an unsupported hotfix.

 

I don't actually NEED to do a restore yet so I'm not feeling the same pressure however I'm actually quite happy with their support so far.

We exchanged about 5 e-mails over several days and I tried 3 different builds of the boot image. Each time they wanted the system text files which makes me wonder how tailored the build is to my particular hardware.

 

I already gave up. I had to restore tonight, so I broke my RAID for the time being as I have enough room. Lost my Win64 boot but no big deal. I could not find info on the site as to the support hours for paid support.

The only problem is now my RAID is turned off, so if they have to tailor a build, I can't do it. What a mess.

 

PS. How "tailored" could it be? There are only 3 or 4 Intel chipsets that would be an issue and every version of Acronis has worked before 11.

 

11.8040; 11.8045; 11.8048; 11.8052 that I know of. There could be more out there. Eventually, when they get a build that's reasonably solid and works on the various platforms, it will be released onthe update page of the website. For now, Acronis is only releasing the iso files on case by case basis.

I wonder why they don't just list all the various isos on the update page, along with some notes as to what it addresses compared to the 11.8027 build, so folks can try the diff versions if they want. I think that might save everyone a lot of time.
