    I have read all over the web to find out if Acronis supports SATA NVRAID and Also Contacted there Sales team. They advised me that Acronis supports all relevant STA NV RAID controllers. Trust a Salesman to sell you sand in the Shara.
    Well here is my problem.
    I have an Asus A8N32 SLI Deluxe Motherboard with a SATA NVRAID Controller.

    I installed Acronis home 11 on XPSP2 and updated it to the latest patch.
    Built the boot media and rebooted.
    Acronis starts up and then NO SATA DRIVE. Anybody else got this problem
    Was this just a waste of money or is it operator erroro_O

    Just tried running it without the boot CD system reboots after option to select drive restore ( from within XP ) was selected starts the recovery environment and then crash dumps loads of scary stuff on my screen. Also It doesn't reboot whats up with this software. Acronis get a big Union award from me Sata NVRAID has been out for years now and still no proper support. May as well go back to driveimage and continue my woes in trying to get it to recognise my Sata NVRAID Drive. Might as well ask my money back

    I have the same mother board with Nvidia raid. The only success I've had is with Windows based environments. You either have to find a program that uses these, or make either a bartpe or vistape recovery disk yourself, as has been discussed here.

    Acronis will have a tough road getting adding these drivers right without extensive testing, as there are at least 6 flavors of the same drivers, and not all of them work with the different nvidia chipsets.
