I have Drivepool running on WHS2011. Pretty sure it's the latest 1.3 version.
We had a power outage and my server died. Now I get a bluescreen as Windows boots up. I've tried a System Restore - same bluescreen. I've tried chkdsk /f - same bluescreen.
If all I had on that drive was the System Image, then I'd just restore it to a new drive. Unfortunately, half of it was the System drive, and the other half was part of the pool. What is the best way to attempt to recover the drive pool piece of this drive?
I'm thinking to System Restore to a new drive and attempt to boot. If successful, then bring online the "broken" drive, plus the other 4 drives, and check the pool status. Will that work? Will the pool be smart enough to just piece it all together?
