Saving image to dynamic disk

Thread needs solution

Hi,

I have a SSD as my OS drive and two 4GB HHD mirrored in a Dynamic Disk in Windows. When I try to run the recovery CD it doesn't find my dynamic disks. Is saving to a dynamic disk not possible with True Image? Should I just create a RAID in the BIOS? Thanks.

Dynamic disks are managed through the OS, so I am not surprised the recovery CD cannot deal with that. Did you try with a WINPE-Based recovery CD?
THis would be the easiest thing to try next.
Otherwise, yes, you will have better chances with a hardware/BIOS raid. But, there is still a risk that the basic Linux-based recovery CD wont handle it (you might see separate disks instead of a single RAID volume). Better changes with WinPE in this case also.
