How Are RAID Arrays Identified By Hardware?

Coward Anonymously Before Me asks: "This is more of a tech/hack question, but recently my highpoint controller forgot my disks were in a raid array. All the Disks still function, and have ZERO problems, aside from being not identified as still in RAID-0. All the data should still be there, but remains unaccessible to me, thus the question how and where would this kind of information be stored? On chip? MBR? and can the data be recovered without 3rd party interaction via free/open source toolkits? or even purchased software?"

Holes,

And we are going to see lots of other flaws in open source software, I'm sad to say. Luckily they will mostly be discovered long before anyone take advantages of them, in contradiction to certain other OS's where on only hears about the holes that are massivly exploited.

Highpoint RAID hardware != Open Source software.

You confused?

Hmm. Let's look at this:

Oh fuck off you stuck up piece of shit. Why the hell did you take the time to go to Google, search, come back and write a reply to the guy if it was just so terrible for you?

Oh fuck me? If my response was so terrible, why did you waste your precious time to reply? You stupid fuck.

That's one thing I really don't get about you elitist pricks.

Elitist prick?

At least I had the BALLS to post my response using my handle, rather than cowering behind Anonymous Coward.

What reason would you (you=you and the other fucks here) have to answer

What reason do I have to answer? What reason do YOU have to answer, you childish piece of tripe?

Well the only reason is that you have to show your "superiority" over him by being a prick.

That's right. I'm superior. The sooner you realize that, the better things will be.

Truth be told, this thread should never have been started. Obviously if the original author had taken less than a minute to search Google, we'd all have been better off.

Then again, it wouldn't have given you the opportunity to so bravely posted your response to my instruction... allthewhile cowering behind an anonymous account.

I have but three additional words for you:

Go
Fuck
Yourself
