I was working on a clients PC today and ran into something that is confusing me.
The client has a SCSI RAID 2+0 setup as a drive for video production, this along side an IDE harddrive for the operating system. The problem isn’t instantly noticeable as the operating system still sees the drives (as does the scsi interface) and I still have access to all the files on the drive.
The problem is that when accessing the drive from Adobe Premier it will freeze up occasionally, while running defrag it freezes at 10% usually, and while I was running scandisk at a certain point it always returns a blue screen mentioning the VFAT. (sorry, didn’t write the exact message down)
The customer has Norton’s Disk Doctor installed and when running it he gets an error that mentions that the Boot Record cannot be found. When running scandisk from dos it doesn’t find any issues, after running fdisk /mbr I still get the problem.
I’m a bit confused as to what a 2+0 is compared to just a 2 or a 0, but I’m also more concerned that this will require a repartitioning of the hard drives (which isn’t out of the question, just seems unneccesary). I’d really appreciate any help. Thanks.
