How do i access files on MD1000?

Hi,

We are using MD1000 with Poweredge 2900 that is running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 32bit. Our server's hard drives were crashed and we have sent them for recovery. I attached a new hard drive to the server and reinstalled windows server 2003 R2 32Bit on it. Now, i am not able to access the files and folders on MD1000. I can see drives under the open manage and windows disk management.

Please help.

Hello nishantdewan,

What you need to do is to bring the disk online in windows disk management.  Once the drive is brought online you should be able to see the data and access it.  Now you don’t want to format the disk but you may need to assign a drive letter to the disk.  Once that is done then you should be able to see and access all data on your MD1000.  

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
