so i had 3 mushkin 60gb SSD's in raid0, one of them failed, and i have no money to replace it, and its out of warrenty. but what i have is a 120gb hard drive.
the problem here is that i need to know if it will work, as i need to recover my system using windows system backup and restore. i'm screwed if i cannot recover it. windows system backup and restore will only recover to a hard drive larger than the original drive or the original setup, as i no longer have the original setup its why i need to put the 120gb in. i know many of people say recovering to raid 0 doesn't work, but i have done it before ad i've seen others do it. i think it depends on the drive.
anyways i don't need to hear about that, i just need to know will a 120gb drive work in the same raid 0 with 2 ssds or not?
i don't really want to mess up my pc if it doesn't work. so thanks in advance for any honest replies
Edit: if it doesn't work, is there anyway to restore files and programs from the backup without restoring windows? i can just reinstall windows on the 2 drives instead.
