RAID controller support

Hey,
will the True Image Enterprise Server support RAID controllers, that are only supported by Windows if you install their proper drivers (i.e. pressing F6 at setup time)?
We have a server with one RAID-1 for the system files and one RAID-5 for the data. Both controllers need special drivers, windows would not be able to access those disks without the drivers. There are no other disks (normal ide for example). How can True Image be able to restore an image to those disks from DVD or an external USB-Disk or a tape?
Regards

Hello Grommit,

Thank you for your interest in Acronis Remote Server Backup Software.

When Acronis True Image 8.0 Enterprise Server for Windows is running under Windows, then it works with all the hard disk drivers detected by the operating system.
If Acronis True Image 8.0 Enterprise Server for Windows is running in rescue mode (e.g. to restore the system partition), then the following RAID controllers are supported:

- P-ATA (IDE) RAID controllers (Promise, Highpoint)
- All levels (RAID 0,1,2,3,4,5) of most of SCSI RAID controllers (Adaptec, Dell, LSI and others)
- SATA RAID controllers (Highpoint, Intel, Promise, Silicon Image)

Some RAID controllers may be supported as well (the ones that have not been tested yet) and the others will be supported with the future updates.
