Problems with RAID5/RAID0 and P55 chipset

Thread needs solution

Sorry no Acronis error! This was my fault (the motherboard is not able to boot from a 4TB partition...)

Hello, I tried to restore an image on a computer with P55 chipset and RAID5 disc array (managed by the P55 chipset - Intel Matrix Storage Manager). The Rescure Disc "Acronis True Image 11 Home" did not recognize the disc array at all. The Rescure Disc from "Trail version 2010" claims to restore the image with out errors, but after rebooting the MBR seems to be defect. Hardware: - Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4 - 2GB Memory - 3x2TB Hard disc (Seagate) I got the same error with a RAID0 disc array. The strange thing is, that the Acronis True Image Home version 11 is able to restore on the same computer with a RAID1 disc array?! I googled a bit and found out that many other people had similar problems. Any updates or workarounds are very welcome!

You're best bet is to contact chat and see if you can get a boot disk iso that will work on your hardware.

Interim measure, register your serial number and see if the downloadable boot cd iso works any better than what you have now.

Hope that helps at least a little.
