I have a machine that was running software windows raid 1. Somehow, after restart raid configuration failed and now two drives are separate volumes. I can't find an option to restore raid configuration or create new raid 1 setup without erasing both drives.

How do I restore previous software raid 1 configuration?

Edit: Drives were in mirror setup for storage, not boot. Both drives are now dynamic, simple volumes.

    Confirm data is good on one drive, delete the partition on the mirror drive and rebuild it. – DanBig Sep 17 '13 at 18:43
  • Data was good on both drives. But I tried what you suggested and it worked. I was afraid to delete a working volume. Thank you :D – jM2.me Sep 17 '13 at 18:51
