help with backing up raid array

[tone]

I'm upgrading my raid array, and noticed "Norton Ghost" does not support raid configurations. Any suggestions for a painless backup would be great. My OS is Windows ME, and I have 2 drives at "raid 0" striping. Thanks.....Tony

Get two more drives and create your RAID 0+1. Either than or start thinking about tape, or lots and lots of CD-R's.

How about NTI back up now?

If you mean that Norton Ghost does not see the two drives as independent entities, you are correct. It sees them as a logical unit, as the BIOS reports to the O/S. That being the case, you back it up just as you would any other hard drive.

You can back it up to another HD, another RAID array, or to an image file - whatever you choose.

DJ's right, it'll be just fine. Use Ghost. I did.

I second dj4005's response. I've used Norton Ghost to back up my RAID 0 array to both another HD and CDRs (LOTS of CDRs :roll
