Was working on an SSD for another machine and dropped it in my WHS with DrivePool.
Something happened while it was in there and when I rebooted the WHS it said it couldn't find any of the standard shared folders (including system backups) or the shared folders I built.
that it changed the drive letters for everything with the SSD and that has thrown the whole drive pool off. I don't know what letters my drives were before either, but assume it isn't different by much.
The files/folders are on the drivepool when you explore it in win explorer, but it's not shared. I was able to relink/point through the console using the relink feature for a few shared folders, took a few minutes but looks like the data is there.
I am most concerned about getting the backups all pointed back at the right spot, have a lot of older system backups I would like to have access too.
Any suggestions? I am copying the entire 2.5 TB backup folder right now in hopes that it could be pushed back in case it gets wiped if I do a manual linking to the folder.

My assumption is like this thread discusses: http://forum.covecube.com/discussion/456/lost-all-my-shared-folders/p1
that it changed the drive letters for everything with the SSD and that has thrown the whole drive pool off. I don't know what letters my drives were before either, but assume it isn't different by much.

Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions!
