System Recovery to RAID volume

Vista x64 Ultimate

I have a Raid 0 with 2x Velociraptors for OS and programs etc

Have another Raid 5 with 3x 1.5 TB drives for storage.

Had it set to backup every day etc. One of the raptors decided to go
bad and I got the new one in. I have never done the system recovery.
Figured out how to boot to it and it would not read my info off of my
Raid 5, but it say my Raid 0.

No problem, I copied the backup from the storage raid onto an external
hard drive, now I want to write that to the Raid 0 volume, that's where
I am having the problem.

It says its failed and that the semapore time has expired. Do I need to
load any drivers for the Raid 0 volume even though it sees it and vista
doesn't need any drivers to install it?

Hi,

Yes, it's potentially possible to still need to load a raid driver, they're
not always natively supported.

You should install raid 5 recovery drivers and software so that at th
time of data corruption you can take the data backup and save your data
