[ale] RAIDS ARE NICE WHEN THEY WORK.

[H. A. Story]

I need a little help with RAIDS.  I have a need to get the data of the 
array of drives but the RAID controller has gone bad.  It is an LSI 
controller.  I saw something once where someone on the web did DD images 
of each drive in raid and was able to get those back into the correct 
order and make a software raid.  This file system is not a Linux Native 
OS.  It is SCO.  Has anyone here done something like this?   I would 
assume at this point that not all vendors use the same protocols in the 
raids and I really wonder how a software raid would figure out the 
stripping.  Think I would have better luck going through backup tapes at 
this point.
