Hey all,
This is my first post in Tomshardware, but anyway here's the situation. My 2TB USB external Hard Drive holds all my family photos (item link below), it stopped registering as a Drive Letter in My Computer, but did pop up as a "USB Hard Drive" or something in Device Manager. Anyway I couldn't get to work so I connected the TWO drives inside the external directly to my computer. (they were SATA)
However, the drives seem to be having the same error and are not showing up in My Computer, but I can see a WL1000GSA1672 in the Device Manager, of course that is only one drive.
I know they are in a RAID array and I believe that disabling the RAID array will destroy my files. I know near to nothing about RAID Arrays, just that they have two HDDs act in syn as one.
How can I get my computer to see these drives? How do I plug in - and access the files - in two HDDs in a Raid Array to my computer?
