I have a raid 1 (the mirrored one) and just lately my computer is freezing for 10 seconds to a minute. This is followed by a barely audible high pitch wurrr and what sounds like a seek/pickup of one of the hard drives.
Updated every driver/software I can find, even my bios.
I ran chk dsk and it found about 20 corrupt files/segments.
My question is, What happenes when one of the drives goes bad in a RAID 1 (mirrored)?. Can I just use the good drive as an ordinary IDE?.
Is there a way of getting a new drive and slotting it into the raid, essentially replacing the faulty one.
Thanks,
