Creating a Striped Raid from two used disks

I have *2 internal 300GB drives* in my G5. My start up disk has *4GB left* and my second drive has *80GB remaining*.
I want to make a *striped Raid* of the two disks to allow me to use the remaining 84GB as startup space.
I am guessing that if I backup the second drive and erase it I can add it to my startup disk without loosing its information and create the RAID. Is this the case?
Can anyone give me any pointers for the process and are there any draw backs to having a striped raid as a start up disk.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me with this!

Are you using bootcamp for Windows?
Unless something has changed, if your startup disk is a raid (of any flavor), Windows will not see it.
You'll have to use the option key at startup to switch back to X.
If you are using sheepshaver or similar for OS9, 9 will not see the raid.
Both are minor, but can be annoying.
I believe you need 3 disks for a striped raid.
2 for the actual raid, and the 3rd for parity.
This setup allows for data recovery in case of failure.
a 2 disk raid striped is subject to data loss if one of the drives fails.
If I recsll correctly, both drives will be formatted during the raid creation process.

Quicktime Does Not Work...Striped yellow/black bar or Q with ?

Hi, I have read the previous posts about similar problems with quicktime but the posted fixes have not resolved my issue. I have three computers. Quicktime quit working on two of them. Before upgrading to the latest version, I got the yellow/black striped bar when quicktime tried to open. Now I get the Q with the ?. I've checked my settings and even reselected the "default" settings several times but to no avail. As to the "system preferences and deselecting quicktime with flash" input, I have been unable to locate this setting (at least as described). I have upgraded my flash as well. All three computers supposedly have the same settings.
Sometimes I receive a popup indicating additional quicktime software/plugins are required to run the media and asking if I want to get the necessary files. When I click, "yes," it takes me to the quicktime plugin page, but does not tell me what is needed.
How do I fix this problem? Here is the link to the site in question today: http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/index/1,21581,5015022,00.html

The site posted is using Adobe Flash Player 9. The QT version on the computer only supports version's of Macromedia Flash Player 5. Open the QT control panel, go to Browser tab, Mime Settings, and uncheck Flash media, listed under Misc.Misc. file formats. Or refer too:http://kb.mozillazine.org/Quicktime
Or update QT to 7.3.1.70

There's a black and white striped glitch on the left side of my screen on my Macbook Air! Its happened before and has been an easy fix, usually just restart or turn off my computer but don't know what else to do. Is there anything I can try now?

Can I create a mirrored RAID1 from an existing striped RAID0 without erasing the data?

I have a 1.5 TB striped RAID0 with 3 500 GB drives. I have a clone of the data from the 1.5TB RAID on a non-RAID 1TB drive and a 500GB drive. I'd like to create a RAID1 mirrored set out of all of these disks. I can partition the 1TB into 2 500GB drives and combine that with the other 500 GB. I'd rather not erase the data to create the mirror. Is there a way to rebuild a mirrored set from the existing 1.5 TB striped set, or do I need to start all over? I have a third copy of the data that I could put on the new mirrored RAID if necessary.
The data is aperture, itunes and imovie libraries. To back up a minute, is having a RAID1 a good option or is there a better solution that I am not considering?
PS I'm using a 2.53 GHz macbook pro unibody with 8GB of RAM.

First off a mirrored RAID requires two drives of equal size (could be two striped RAIDs of equal size.) So, as I understand what you have to work with you can create a single 500 GB mirrored RAID using two of the 500 GB drives.
You could create a striped RAID array using two of the 500 GB drives, then combine it with the 1 TB drive you have to create a 1 TB mirrored RAID. But this would not be the best alternative because if one of the smaller drives in the striped array fails then you lose everything on those drives. Not so bad as long as the single 1 TB drive is OK.

Hardware or Software RAID?
RAID Hardware Vs RAID Software - What is your best option?
RAID is a method of combining multiple disk drives into a single entity in order to improve the overall performance and reliability of your system. The different options for combining the disks are referred to as RAID levels. There are several different levels of RAID available depending on the needs of your system. One of the options available to you is whether you should use a Hardware RAID solution or a Software RAID solution.
RAID Hardware is always a disk controller to which you can cable up the disk drives. RAID Software is a set of kernel modules coupled together with management utilities that implement RAID in Software and require no additional hardware.
Pros and cons
Software RAID is more flexible than Hardware RAID. Software RAID is also considerably less expensive. On the other hand, a Software RAID system requires more CPU cycles and power to run well than a comparable Hardware RAID System. Also, because Software RAID operates on a partition by partition basis where a number of individual disk partitions are grouped together as opposed to Hardware RAID systems which generally group together entire disk drives, Software RAID tends be slightly more complicated to run. This is because it has more available configurations and options. An added benefit to the slightly more expensive Hardware RAID solution is that many Hardware RAID systems incorporate features that are specialized for optimizing the performance of your system.
For more detailed information on the differences between Software RAID and Hardware RAID you may want to read: Hardware RAID vs. Software RAID: Which Implementation is Best for my Application?
Do You Really Need a RAID?
There is only one thing a RAID provides - more space. Beyond that a RAID can’t help you with:
Accidental deletion or user error
Viruses or malware
Theft or catastrophic damage
Data corruption due to other failed hardware or power loss
Striped RAIDs have a higher failure risk than a single drive
The purpose of a RAID is to provide high speed mass storage for specialized needs like video editing, working with extremely large files, and storing huge amounts of data.
If your array fails it means complete loss of data and hours of time to rebuild. RAIDs degrade over time necessitating many hours of restoration. And, if you don't know much about RAIDs then you really don't need one.
You can use a RAID for backup. But unless your backup needs involve TBs of data requiring rapid and frequent access, why bother? TM works in the background. It's not like you have to sit there waiting for your backup to be completed. Furthermore, you're buying two drives possibly to solve a problem where a single drive will do. And, one drive is less expensive than two.
Ignoring overhead, two drives in a RAID 0 (striped) array should perform about twice as fast. However, as the array fills up with files that performance will degrade.
RAID was a technology that in it's time was meant to solve a problem. Large capacity, fast drives were extremely expensive. Small drives were cheaper but slower. However, combining these cheaper drives into arrays gave faster performance and the larger capacity needed for data storage needs. Thus, the reason why it's called Redundant Array of Inexpensive Drives. But today you can buy a 3 TB drive with performance that's better than the 1 TB drives of two or three years ago.

I am getting error (-1) while updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1. The phone has gone into a recovery mode. Restore fails every time at "restoring the firmware" stage. Striped bar remains for a long time, then shows "error (-1)" and the restore fails. Help!

Thanks for your reply Michalo. I am in India and here Apple care does not work on Sundays. I have been without my phone for the entire day. Perhaps tomorrow will bring some respite. There is not solution to "error (-1)" on any forum it seems. I found one forum which suggested use of Tiny Umbrella. Any idea about that?

Striped RAID not recognized by Macbook Pro

I have a pair of external firewire 250GB drives that I had configured into a striped RAID set on my Powerbook Titanium. I recently purchased a Macbook Pro. When I plug the drives into the new machine, they are not recognized and the array (and I use the term loosely since it only refers to a pair of drives!) will not mount. When I launch DIsk Utility, the drives appear in the list and are offline. I cannot find a way to bring the thing online.
When I created the RAID, I used Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. The disk set still works fine on my Powerbook and checks out fine with Disk Utility on that machine.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how to use my striped set on my new machine?

Hi, P. J.
Unfortunately, I don't have an answer for you, but — seeing as how your question has gone unanswered — I thought I'd offer the following hypothesis: I suspect it may have something to do with the different partitioning schemes used by PPC and Intel-based Macs.
Theoretically, "Any Macintosh computer running Mac OS X 10.4 and later can mount GPT-partitioned disks," per "Technical Note TN2166, "Secrets of the GPT." However, the RAID you created on your PPC-based Mac used the APM (Apple Partition Map) scheme.
Perhaps all the bugs haven't been worked out, esp. concerning RAID. For example, there is a known issue that some Intel-based Macs cannot boot from RAID volumes.
You may want to try your question on the MacBook Pro Discussion to see if others with your same Mac have had better luck. I'd also suggest providing more details (manufacturer, make, model, etc.) of the FireWire drives you've used in the RAID. If both are from the same manufacturer, then you might also want to check with the manufacturer to see if they've had similar reports.
One option, albeit a good bit of work, would be to backup the contents of the RAID to another drive, then recreate the RAID on your Intel-based Mac, restore the data, and see if that works on both your PPC- and Intel-based Macs.
Good luck!

Striped + Mirrored software RAID no longer mounting

I have a MacPro 4,1 using the 4 internal bays each with a 1.5GB drive. Drives 1&2 are mirrored, drives 3&4 are mirrored. Those 2 mirrored drives are then striped together for a volume called 'Titanic.' Been working great for years, but just recently Titanic will no longer mount. My mirrors don't show any errors, but it seems I lost the stripe configuration. I updated to Yosemite last week. When running verify and repair I get:
Invalid number of allocation blocks. The volume could not be verified completely. File system check exit code is 8.
Running Terminal's checkRaid I get this:

Essentially if my mirrors are fine can I repair the striping? I have everything backed up offsite, but before I put my resources in that direction is there anything I can do to repair the problem?

My jab at it: Apple vs SoftRAID, for RAID 0+1?
Began under Mountain Lion or earlier without a rebuild?
The drives are enterprise type 7.2k 1.5TB (typo) and verified with checksum during vs lips and a tanning for weak sectors...?
SoftRAID today checks in background for media and I/O errors as well as stepped-read mirrors (3 should be minimum)
I don't see any reason not to erase and restore, probably to a new set of 3-4 2TB drives with current OS.

Metainit/striping problem on Solaris 9

We are trying to deploy the Apple XServe RAIDS to customers running Solaris 9. The issue is that Solaris 9 will not recognize a device/LUN that is > 2TB. (No problem with Solaris 10) In trying to solve this problem, we sliced a 7 disk (4.09 TB) RAID into 3 slices. This presents three 1.36TB disks to the Solaris system. Basically, we have 6 disks being presented across both controllers to Solaris. They are direct connected from the XServe to a dual port QLogic HBA. The problem comes in when you try to create a stripe/concatenation across the logical devices being presented. (The disks are being presented on C4 and C5)
Results from a format AFTER I split both 7 disk RAID5s into 3 slices.

I received the same error.
In doing some reaearch, it seems the problem is due to a problem with the disk duplication process, disk device IDs stored on the disks are not unique. I was curious if this is the problem that Apple presents the split disks with the SAME diskid? Has anybody else successfully created stripes (due to a LUN size limit) across the disk successfully on a Solaris system?

I contacted Sun and here is an explination from them. I also noticed when I queried the Xserver RAIDS, there were no serial numbers.
Solaris 9 can support a 16Tb filesystem, but there is a scsi limitation on the device of 2Tb. So you are stuck with striping together several smaller devices if you want a single filesystem above 2Tb.
The problem you are having when metainit reports an overlap comes from the way Solaris Volume Manager identifies devices. The portion of the scsi inquiry that is returned is always unique when Sun firmware is involved, but in your case is not unique.
You may be able to make use of the appended infodoc to avoid this problem. I see no evidence of our having tested this with your particular scenario, but it has been successful in similar cases.
You might also inquire of whoever supports your storage device whether a mode is supported whereby the device's inquiry strings can be made unique.
Here is the steps he wanted me to take and the results. I still can not get the Xserve RAIDS to generate a unique device id:
Step 1

Restore Time Machine backup to Raid 0 (Striped set)?

I've been struggling with setting up my Mac mini (late 2012) server with a Striped RAID set and then restoring a Time Machine backup to the new RAID 0 volume. Here are the steps I have undertaken:
Bought a 3TB Airport Time Capsule and created a full restore of my existing Time Machine backups to it.
My Mac mini has dual 1TB hard drives. Pressed Command + R on bootup and entered recovery mode.
Using Disk Utility, I created a Striped RAID set by adding both my 1TB drives as slices to a new RAID set and clicked on Create.
After the RAID set was created, I exited Disk Utility.
Clicked on Restore from Time Machine Backup.
The process fails as it cannot create a Recovery Partition on a RAID set.
After much exploration, I think the problem can be resolved by attempting to Reinstall OS X on Step 5 and then attempting a Time Machine restore after the core OS is in place. Thoughts?

Additional Information
A Recovery partition cannot be created on RAID volumes. If your startup device is a RAID volume, you back up and reconfigure your computer to use a non-RAID boot volume. If needed, create a separate RAID volume for data which is not the target of the OS X installation. You can also create an external, bootable drive with a Recovery partition, as described above.
See this article if the following message appears during the install process:
"Install Failed: OS X could not be installed on your computer. OS X can't be installed on the disk because a recovery system can't be created. Visit www.apple.com/support/no-recovery to learn more"

Striping in Photoshop Elements 7 photo prints

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. My PC runs Windows 7 Professional (64 bit). For years, I have produced high quality prints with my Epson Stylus Photo R280 printer. Not so recently.
The printer began depositing a colored stripe at the top and bottom of my photos (portrait orientation). And, horizontal streaking began appearing evenly spaced from top to bottom.
I called Epson tech support. The techie put me through many troubleshooting steps. The nozzle check pattern was fine, so she had me print using Photoshop Elements 7 and using Windows Picture Viewer. Both prints had the same issues - horizontal striping from top to bottom and wider stripes at the top of the page and bottom. She concluded that the problem is Elements!
Can anyone shed light on how Elements 7 could be the culprit and what I can do to fix it. I love the printer and Elements but I cannot continue throwing money at paper and ink to test the printer.
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Thanks for the suggestion about getting a new printer. I had hoped that Epson would be able to tell me if my printer is toast and send me off shopping. But, they have not been so helpful.
If you have any suggestions, I am all ears. I have been trying to decide whether to purchase a printer that uses pigment inks or purchase one that uses dye inks. My Epson Stylus Photo R280 uses dye inks and recipients of my photos are in awe of the quality. I have limited experience with the new printers of today. The Canon Pixma MG 5420 does a nice job but it's prints are not as vibrant as the Epson that is dying (or dead). The Canon uses pigment inks (Magenta, Yellow, Cyan, Black and Photo Black).

Ipod Touch, 3rd generation, blue striped screen, then... nothing

I have an ipod touch 3rd generation, version 4.2.1 (I think), model A1288, 8gb. A month ago it stopped working and wouldn't respond to a reset by pushing the on and home buttons together, and it wasn't recognized by itunes or by my Vista OS laptop.
After sitting for weeks, the battery must have died and I charged it and it turned on and it seemed to work fine for a day. Then overnight it crashed and died again. I don't know what caused the crash, it wasn't being used at the time. When I reset it following the crash, I got the apple logo, but nothing more... and then a black screen. When I reset it again, I got a purplish, blue laterally striped screen with the apple logo in the middle ...and then it turned black and wouldn't respond.
Since that time, nothing I do will cause it to turn on or respond in any way. No apple logo, no screen activity of any kind. When I connect it to itunes, the computer doesn't recognize it and itunes doesn't respond to it. When I connect my ipad to itunes, it's recognized just fine. I've never seen this before. Any ideas on how I should proceed with repairing this? If I could get it to start up, I could look for updates and uninstall apps to try to eliminate a conflict, but I can't get it to respond at all. Thanks for any ideas or help you can offer.

- After charging for at least an hour see if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
- Next try DFU mode

Saved sequences in Premiere Pro CC acting oddly, striped clips, green clips, blue clips...

Rather new user to PP. Can't even find this question asked anywhere.
1. The other day, I created some sequences. Each sequence has its own bin and the source footage is in the bin.
2. Today I open up the sequences and though the source footage is intact & shows in the preview pane, it does not appear in the Program pane. Instead, the clips are either blue striped or just blue. The striped ones don't play audio or video. The blue ones only play audio.
3. So, I made a test sequence. I imported the footage again, placed it in its own bin with the test sequence. Added some clips to the sequence. Closed the project & reopened it. The sequence was duplicated somehow. Dup #1 plays perfectly. Dup #2 appears with the clip having a green bar instead of blue, and the clips have merged together in the sequence.
What the heck is going on?
Striped & blue clips. No visual for either. Audio only for blue.
Green clip that merged from 2 clips to 1 in a duplicated sequence that I did not do.
"Normal" Blue clip in test sequence. This is the one that Premiere duplicated, merged, and changed green after closing/reopening project.

I've restarted it several times, and actually other projects are working like clockwork in Premiere, so I think it has to do with the source file links.
I moved all the source files to a new folder, and when I opened this project again, almost all of the sequences were back to normal ... except for one. It duplicated itself, merged all the clips together & turned green (like the image I posted earlier). So what does this green bar mean? Why is it duplicating sequences & merging the clips together within the sequences?

Qosmio F10-121 while startup screen becomes striped with big purples stripes

Hi !
I suddenly had a problem with my Qosmio. Perhaps someone could help me.
When I turn on my computer, the Qosmio logo appears (sound ok) and then, Windows logo. But here comes the problem, my screen becomes striped with big purples stripes. I can't do anything, it's totally unreadable... Windows can't be loaded, the Qosmio bips and reboot.
When I plug an external screen, it's the same thing.
I tried to use the restoration DVD, but for the instant, it changes nothing.
I see 2 issues:
- A video card problem (but Qosmio logo appears, and restoration DVDs menus are normal
- A big HDD failure (when I plug the internal Qosmio's dd on my other computer, it's very, very slow, and suddenly, HDD disappears)
So, if you have advices...
Thank you very much for your answers, and don't look at the mistakes.
Eric

I reply myself to complete informations.
I can't run the computer in qosmio mode. If my memory is good, I had only to use the tv little grey key when off. If i use the key, the computer shut on, but nothing on screen, caps lock is on.
Other anormality: I wanted to use Kaella fro linux to see if the video card was ok, but I can't boot on the cd, even pressing C key at startup...
I think he is dead. But I bought it only 2 years ago...
Thank's.

IPhoto 6.0.6 importing distorted/striped/damaged/unrecognizable image files

I have been having trouble importing photos from my camera into iPhoto for a while. Thought it may have been my old Canon PowerShot A80, but I just bought a brand new Canon Rebel XSi and I am having the same issues.
Whether I use the USB cable directly from the camera into my tower's USB port (have tried each available port) or I insert the card into the SD slot in my Epson WorkForce 600 printer, the results are the same: some images import correctly, some import severely segmented/distorted or striped with crazy technicolors, and some wont import at all and I get a popup that tells me some files were of "unrecognized file type or damaged files" with a list of the files that say temp/var file. What is going on here??? Help!
PS The same issues also occur when importing with the EOS utility instead of iPhoto.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Are you shooting Raw or Jpeg? For Raw support on that camera you need 10.5.4 or better.
You might want to look closely at the camera if the problem is also occurring with Canon's own software.
