Hi guys,

I was trying to mess around with mirroring my drives and while making two of them dynamic I also made my main C: drive dynamic. Of course this meant that I couldn't boot the pc.

I booted from the windows install disc and ran the troubleshoot problems and it now works fine however all my drives are dynamic (and I've chickened out of mirroring).

Noob question: Is this fine? Is there any problems caused by having all drives as dynamic and if so should I try one of those programmes to change them back? Or is it ok to just leave it as it is?

Thanks very much

dynamic = software raid generally so best avoided

Ah thanks. I was doing it through windows and just following instructions I found online. I now have three dynamic drives (my storage drives and the main one with operating system). Can I change it back without formatting or do I have to format them?
