    After about 4 hours of looking for solutions I decided to try the bootable rescue media disc and select the "Safe" setting without all the SCSI drivers ect... Guess what... IT RECOGNIZED MY NVRAID 0 ARRAY!!!!! and I was able to restore the image. Hope this helps out some people... I know it frustrated the heck outta me.

    CHEERS!

    Hi Gras,

    The "Safe" selection uses a combination of DOS and you mother board's BIOS routines to access the hardware. Therefore if your RAID is configured via the BIOS then it's a fair bet TI will detect it correctly and carry out a successful restore.

    Regards

    Just a nitpick from my handy Grammar & Composition Nazi book:

    it is redundant (no pun intended) to say "RAID array", since RAID implicitly means an array, as in Redundant Array of Independent Disks. It used to be that the I stood for Inexpensive, but that's been changed by the Advisory some time ago. Sorry for the OT intermission and carry on.

    Amazing!!!!!!!!!

    Who would have thunk it. I'll bet a lot of people with nVidia RAID will want to try this.
     
  6. Tread cautiously, Gras.

    With TI8 and NVRAID 0, I used the Safe setting to get Acronis to successfully recognize the array. Unfortunately, the image produced in this manner would not restore properly, and I lost my C:/ drive and my data. That was the last time I used Acronis TI with NVRAID.

    Hopefully, they got it right with TI9, but be careful. Perhaps you should try a restore to an empty partition before trying to restore C:/.

    Congrats, I only wish it would support my RAID1+0 array too.
