| *crap* Ok, so I have an NT4 test server for Siebel. It's a mirror of

Tried to

don't know

recovered

| possible. I can't even rebuild it yet, but can if that's necessary.

| The box is a POS black box edition... no vendor, piecemeal parts.
Dual

Install the drive as a slave in a working machine, and run the scandisk
from there.
