Hi all,
I have a raid 5 with 5 disks (3 TB each). That was running on a sil 3132 controller and was created with RAID5MANAGER. All of a sudden the 5th drive was shown as orphan and the raid could not be started.
Hence I physically detached the disks from the raid controller and attached it to a normal sata controller. Now I am able to see the discs but still no software seem to be able to recover the raid.
I already tried ReclaiMe Free RAID Recovery as well as Runtime RAID Reconstructor.
Not sure if it makes a big difference but the entire raid (12 TB) is encrypted with Truecrypt.
I would be glad if someone could help me with ideas to further analyze/fix the situation.
