TI 11 Home vs TI Home 2010 Raid support

Thread needs solution

Am I to understand that I should continue using the TI 11 on my setup and not upgrade to TI Home 2010?? I have 4 HDD's using the Intel Matrix Raid 0/5. This is what I read in the 2010's user guide:

 

1.4.4 Supported storage media

 Hard disk drives*

 Networked storage devicesFTP servers**

 CD-R/RW, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R (including double-layer DVD+R), DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, BD-R, BD-RE***

 USB 1.0 / 2.0 /3.0, FireWire (IEEE-1394) and PC card storage devices

 REV®, Jaz® and other removable media

* Acronis True Image Home does not support the following dynamic volume types: Mirrored and RAID-5. There are some additional limitations on operations with dynamic and GPT disks:

 To perform operations with dynamic and GPT disks, you need separately purchased Acronis Plus Pack

 Creation of Acronis Secure Zone is not supported.

 Recovery of a dynamic volume as a dynamic volume with manual resizing is not supported

 GPT disks can be recovered only "volume-to-volume" without the possibility of resizing

 Try&Decide cannot be used for protecting dynamic and GPT disks

 "Clone disk" operation is not supported for dynamic and GPT disks

Any clarification would be helpful.

Thanks, Dave

I don't think 11 officially suported RAID 5 either, did it?

Make a backup with what you have. unistall it and install ATI 10 on a free trial basis and see if it works. Or wait for the next version, which, if prior years are any indication, will come out in about a month, give or take.

You have a hardware RAID, and the bolded limitation is about Windows dynamic disks. These types of dynamic disks (Mirrored and RAID-5) are unsupported on desktop Windows OSes anyway.
