I currently have 5 disks in a dynamic disk configuration, totalling
over 1000 GB

My system is getting rather sluggish and I would like to reinstall XP.
Disk 0 is not dynamic and contains teh XP install. If i were to format
that drive, leaving the dynamic disks untouched, could I still read the
data on the dyanamic partitions after i Reinstall XP.

I have XP Pro if it makes any difference.


any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.

Your reason for formatting appears to be invalid. There are other problems
that need to be resolved which would eliminate the formatting.


You could be right, but it would still be interesting to know the answer to
his question.
