The other day while trying to over clock I lost my raid stripping array. I reset the array which meant I had to reformat of course.
When I tried to run Fdisk first one of my HD's had a bunch of computer gibberish for a volume label so I couldn't Fdisk it.
When I reformatted it it took 3 hours instead of one.
And some how I lost 5 gigs. I tried using wild cards as a volume label with no luck. Any one now how to fix this? Any help would be greatly welcome!!! Thanks guys
 
Does your board have a standard non-raid controller?
Try putting the hard drive on that, re-fdisk/format,
then put it back on the raid & do what you have to do to
get the raid to work.
See if that works?
 
your volume label or partiton tables may have gotten mangeled. Try putting ona regular controller and maybe use a disk doctor software of some type, or put in anotehr system and a slave and run defrag then chkdks or scandisk to fix errors
