RAID 0 Array on New Motherboard

[bjornarh]

I have a raid 0 array striping on two raptors - i have just purchased a new motherboard and when i go to boot it up and enter the Raid Setup i do not see my old array. All i see is two 'free' hard drives.

Is there a way for me to get back my 'old' array, or do i just have to clear out the disks and create a new one?

Thanks!

I believe (not 100%) that you have to rebuild the array.

If the raid controller on your new motherboard, isn't the same as the one on your old motherboard..you may not be able to reconstruct your array and have you data intact..I recomend backing up your data using the old motherboard first, otherwise when you rebuild the array on the new motherboard..you'll likely lose your data. If they have the same chipset on the other hand, you should be fine.
