    RAID 0 disk order

    Posted by Marco Malaca on February 11, 2011 at 6:27 pm

    I currently have a 2 bay raid enclosure (datatale).
    I have setup my 2 1.5gb HDD to RAID 0.
    Will changing the order of the HDD in the bay cause damage to my RAID system?
    Cause now I cannot read my RAID and I am not if I have switch the HDDs order.

    thanks!

    Usually not, but some RAIDs are in fact very sensitive to drive order. For instance, CalDigit RAIDs ship pre-configured, and the hard drives come numbered so they don’t accidentally wind up in a different order. Swap the drives as a test for sure…
