I have a ASUS A7V8X M.B. with 2 sata = drives in stripe mode. The M.B. recently failed and I am wondering how = to retrieve the data. I bought (tried to) a board on ebay but the = company never shipped it Are raid protocols standard so that any MB will = reconfiger my array? Is it chip specific as in hipoint vs promise? Any = help would be awesome. Thanks in advance, Scott H.
