hey guys, hope someone can help me...
i just had another black-screen-of-death (after fullscreen video) like most of the z11 users in this forum, but this time with bad consequences:
when i pushed the power button intel rapid manager showed
up and raid FAILED, ssd on port 3 is a "non-raid disk".
wow!! couldnt believe my eyes at first and thought this will be
gone after a restart, but same thing again.
my config is the european quad model mith i7 and 8 gig ram.
at home i would simply take my image and put it back on, but right
now i'm on business in south africa, typing this post from my cellphone
and i just hope that any of you guys have any other idea to "reactivate"
the raid again so i can at least backup the latest data. yeah and i know,
raid0 is dangerous, i'm not totally new to all this stuff, but who
could imagine that on a 2500 laptop this stuff happens after 6 weeks of use??? come on, sony!!
well, i'd appreciate any hint or guide how to fix this problem, or if anyone
has the proper number to call at sony (support) would also be great!
thanks in advance, peter

Sorry, there's no way to "fix" this. Even if it's a software error that caused this, there's no way to "repair" a stripe. If the drive itself is sound[*], the best you can hope for is to reformat and restore from a backup.
[*]: Check with S.M.A.R.T. what the health status of the drive is.
z11 raid failed - wont boot anymore!! HELP!
