My Mac Pro crashed a few days ago. We are working on getting the info off the computer and back to normal as soon as possible. We have a system like this:
SSD - Boot Drive (All programs and OSX)
Master RAID 0 - User info, Pictures and files
The Master RAID 0 with 2 drives crashed. Its permissions are unrepairable and I can't write to the disk at all. The problem is my user info and Library are all on that disk.
I purchased two new hard drives and would like to get that info off, but I can't. Time Machine wants to write to the damaged drives, and I can't have it write to the new ones either because the user account is on the damaged drives.
I have another emergency user account on the boot drive, but it can't see the time machine files for the RAID 0, I'm guessing because it is on another account.
Ideally, I would like to get all the info from about a week ago prior to the crash and restore it to the new drives. This is proving difficult though since my user account was there beforehand....
Right now I have the SSD, the damaged RAID 0 drives, and the two new RAID 0 drives in the machine....
Any suggestions?
BTW, I have backblaze, Time Machine, and a local backup (which appears to have stopped backing up about two months ago without me realizing). So I have some options, but this is my wife's business computer. Any pictures from these damaged hard drives that go missing will be the end of me. Please help!
