Hi everyone. I've got a question about my pc, and more specifically, the hard drives. I just built a new pc (my first), and I got it all set up fine. The relevant components are:
120GB Samsung 840 series SSD,
3TB Seagate Barracuda HDD,
Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3 mobo,
Windows 7.
Anyway, I have an old PC that ran Windows XP, but it recently crashed. In an effort to fix it, I've taken the two drives that were in there and put them in my new PC (they are in RAID 0). Unfortunately, in the new PC, windows tells me that I need to format them, however, I don't want to do this as I want to save the files on them, and I don't have an xp recovery disc, does anyone know what I need to do to allow me to at least retrieve the files within them?
