I stupidly &nbsp;re-initialized a drive in my boot container (container 0) using the raid controller utilities in doing so I broke the 2 containers 0 and 1 which were my boot drive and my primary data and app drive.<br />
The server won't boot and I need to restore the two containers as they were.<br />
<br />
The two containers spanned 3 physical drives and all were working fine. They each had a 2 gig partition which was the boot partition and a 6.4 gig data partition.<br />
<br />
Can I simply rebuild these raid 5 containers without losing all the data ? Basically I'd like a do over here.

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
