I have two hard drives, the larger one for storage is 160Gb, I had to use a RAID card and Maxblast3 to use it.
My First Hard drive has all my programs and OS on it, it gave me a terrible error one day, I tried to repair Win2KPro but all I could do was a full re-install.
Of course my Maxtor drive was not in 'MyComputer' although the system during bootup finds it! (maxblast)
I ran MaxBlast3 and used the HW wiz to find the drive, it found it, but says 'access denied'! When I have MaxBlast3 look for it, it only finds a controller and my only option is to ERASE the drive!
If I uninstall the drive, when I reboot, its back again! Access denied!
I have tons of work on that drive, I use a secondary drive for storage to protect my work in just this kind of case! But now I cant access the drive?
Do I have to uninstall MB3, take the drive out, install MB3 then put the drive back in?
Will MB4 let me do this without having to go through that pain?
Will a new computer recognize a 160 Gb drive without having to RAID it?
Thanks!
