NX3100 PERC H700 Drive failed, OS continues to reboot after reinstall
Raid Failed and said Foreign Drive on one of the 2 OS drives. The Drive was pulled and the server would still not boot. The Data on the server is on a separate Raid, which from the Raid console appears normal.
Question one...when the OS does get rebuilt successfully how do you attach it to that data in the other raid?
Other problem- OS Raid Array was deleted, and recreated with Raid0 and the 1 good drive. The OS was re-installed (drivers were not loaded, but it saw the disk to install to). OS boots and then has error that says it restarted unexpectedly and to restart and install again.

"drivers were not loaded, but it saw the disk to install to."
What OS are you loading, bios revision? Without the raid driver loaded, you will not get past "says it restarted unexpectedly and to restart and install again".
"...when the OS does get rebuilt successfully how do you attach it to that data in the other raid?"
Once the driver for the raid is installed and OS installs successfully, Windows will see the second array without user invention. You will need to reinstate shares/permissions .
Others jump in, I will be tied up.
