Hi All:
Need some advice. This morning my trusty old Q9650 chip bit the dust after 7 wonderful years of service on my DFI LanParty UT -- ICH5 chipset. I also have my Raided Velocorapter HDs in good condition. Am on Win7 Pro. So can I just attach my old drives to the new motherboard and have Windows read the drives and update the configuration? All my serial numbers, etc are on those drives. I do have a windows home server 2 day old backup if that won't work -- Could I restore to the drives after wiping them on the new motherboard? BTW this is Raid0!
One more question in this vein -- suppose I purchase new SSDs -- can I use my WHS backup to restore to that and have Windows reconfigure?
Any comments/suggestions would be welcome! And I did Google this but really couldn't find any advice for my particular situation
