Hi,
Ive recently upgraded my computer, all has gone ok. I have installed a new CPU (Intel I7 3770k @ 3.5Ghz), Motherboard (MSI Z77 MPower), 16GB DDR3 RAM and nVidea GTX670 graphics card.
I retained the existing Samsung 840 SSD drive and the 2 SATA drives running in RAID. I disconnected both secondary drives when I completed all modifications, and started with a fresh install of Windows 8. I did this so there was no chance of any system files ending up on the secondary drives.
I reconnected the SATA and power cables. It found the secondary drive (E
, but when I try to open it I get asked to Format the drive. When I opt to cancel that option, I get the following message "E:\ is not accessable. The volume does not contain a recognised file system. Please make sure that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupt."
2 questions here, can I make these work without formatting them? If not, is there a way I can get the data off them before I format them?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ryan
