My motherboard died, can I save my RAID 0 onto another board?

[surgeklick]

My 2nd replacement Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R died this week and is currently being returned for a refund. I will be getting a different non-Gigabyte board instead. My problem is that I had 2 hard disks set up in a RAID 0 using the built in ICH9 RAID controller.

How do I go about keeping this RAID set up in a new system? I'm looking at getting a MSI P6N SLI-F v2 650i SLI instead which has NV RAID. Do I have to get a similar board instead?

Thanks

You'll probably need to set up a new array if it's a different controller. Shoulnd't be any problem though - unless of course you were talking about not having a backup. Then you've got other problems.

look at the RAID Mirgration article http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/raid-migration-adventure,1640.html

If you used the Intel RAID and you get a new Intel Chipset with RAID it will upgrade.

If you have extra harddrives you can recover the data with a program like Active@ file recovery (http://www.file-recovery.net/raid.htm)

It does work i recovered a RAID when i lost my P4C800 with Promise RAID.
