Greetings.
My WHS seemes to have gone haywire over a short period of time.. From what I can tell, I may be experiencing multiple issues (seen on the forums). My only goal is to recover the data in shared folders (I know... bad admin for not having this backup elsewhere already. It's a new setup and haven't done this yet).
This is a custom built machine with WHS+PP1. (Install media contains PP1). I have two identical 500G Segate SATA drives. I am backing up a Windows XP desktop and a Vista Ultimate MCE. I have a handful of shared folders (~10) and all but two are duplicated.
Out of the issues I am experiencing; they are:
-File conflict errors
-"Backup service is not running"
-Unhealty secondary drive
-Shared folders showing unhealty
I have some event logs below for more info, but the real (and most important) question I have at this point is how is the best way to go about getting a copy of my data in shared folders data off of the server? I am not really concerned with resolving the issues/performance of the WHS at this point. I have a feeling that most (if not all) of the issue is the drive controller on the motherboard (I had issues with another setup). I've got another machine that I have put the drives in, but not sure where to start.
-If I add the drives to another machine, where do I grab the files from? (reviewed one document, but it wasn't too clear on where they are kept)
-I saw some check disk attempts before removing them from the WHS. Should I run checkdisk first before copying?
-Should I mirror the drives and then try a repair from WHS? (I didn't want to try the repair initially from WHS, and am scared to death I may have some issue similar to http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3bEN-US%3b950193)
-Can anyone suggest a good SATA controller card? ;-)
Thanks in advance.
