everyone, hello. i have the following situation. I have a computer
with 2 sets of drives configured in sata raid 0 using a chaintech
ZNF3-250 motherboard. The computer has died and I would like to move
the drives to a new computer.

Can these sata raid 0 formatted drives be moved to a new computer and
still have access to the data? or are there restrictions on the type
of computer they can be moved to (e.g. it must be the same motherboard
type).

thank you in advance for your help. david

Must be same or compatible controller BIOS. How to get that is
guesswork or information from the manufacturer. The RAID-set
itself can easily be transferred, but the metadata cannot be.
And manufacturers try to be incompatible on purpose to force
you to continue using their brand, IMO.
