Drobo diskpart clean

#1 Post by moustady »

Hi,

I have accidentally used diskpart "clean" command(no parameters) on my drobo.

I have 2 identical 1 TB harddrive

doing testdisk quickscan to dropo through usb will take about 270 days.

so I unplugged the harddrive and pluged it into SATA, it will take now 2.5 hours

now how can I undo what the clean command did to my drobo drives.

Please help!!!

After Quick Search and/or Deeper Search, il all your partitions are listed, set them as P(rimary) and on next screen, choose Write, confirm, Quit

hey cgrenier,

thank you for the reply.

just to make sure I understand you correctly.

1st remove the 2 hard drive from drobo

2nd use diskpart on the 2 drives using quick or deeper search.

3rd if I find any partition I will set "all" of them to primary

4th re-install the drives to drobo

Finish :)

one other question..

what shall I choose the partition table type?

Kind Regards,
Moustady

Use TestDisk, not diskpart again.
