Ti riporto quanto scrive Symantec per la compatibilitą di Ghost con
sistemi con RAID:
Situation:
This document describes the compatibility between Ghost and computers
that use RAID.
Solution:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before you begin: 
Symantec does not provide technical support for imaging RAID drives,
regardless of whether the drive uses software level RAID or hardware
level RAID. Successfully imaging a RAID drive is dependent on the
specific computer model, driver controller, hard drive, and RAID
implementation. Symantec provides the following information only as an
aid to cloning RAID drives. This information is a suggestion only. It
is likely to work only in limited circumstances. Symantec does not
provide support for the following information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ghost and RAID
Ghost is not compatible with computers that use RAID. That is,
Symantec Ghost 7.5 and earlier, and Ghost 2003 and earlier, do not
support RAID controllers on computers that are being imaged. In
addition: 
Ghost does not work with software level RAID. 
Although Ghost might work in some limited circumstances with hardware
level RAID, Symantec does not support using Ghost for cloning hardware
level RAID drives. 
Ghost does support cloning drives that have had RAID removed, such as
after you break a mirrored set.
Ghost and hardware-level RAID systems
Although it is not a supported feature, Ghost can sometimes create and
restore images to hardware level RAID systems if you load the
appropriate DOS ASPI driver to support this. Load the DOS ASPI driver
when you create the image file and again when you restore the image
file. DOS ASPI drivers can usually be obtained from the RAID hardware
manufacturer. For other ASPI driver information, see the document
Information on ASPI drivers.
Notes on getting Ghost to work with hardware RAID systems 
Use similar hardware: Restore the image file only to a computer that
uses the same hardware as the source computer. Because the operating
system needs the drivers for the array, the drives will be
inaccessible on the destination computer unless the hardware is the
same. 
SCSI or IDE: Ghost's ability to work with RAID arrays is not dependent
on whether the array uses SCSI drives or IDE drives. 
Mirrored sets in Windows NT: To clone mirrored sets in Windows NT,
break the mirror, run Ghost with the -NTIID switch ( -ntiid ), and
then recreate the mirror using the Windows NT Disk Administrator. Note
that duplexed disks are a type of mirrored set. See the document
Cannot migrate Windows NT mirrored or striped sets to larger drives. 
Mirrored sets in Windows 2000/XP: Symantec Ghost 7.5 and Norton Ghost
2003 support cloning a mirrored partition in Window 2000 and Windows
XP provided that the source partition is on a Dynamic Disk and the
image is restored to a Basic Disk. The restored partition is not
mirrored. See the document Ghost compatibility with Dynamic
partitions. 
Restore the partition rather than the disk: In some situations, Ghost
may be able to restore a partition from a disk image when Ghost cannot
restore the disk image.
