Hi,


I have a RAID 5 array of 4 HDD's, one of them failed and I have created an image of the 3 remaining disks using ZAR.

How do I load this image up into ZAR so that it can generate the parity and recover files?

Thanks.

Start ZAR and procced as in this manual - http://www.z-a-recovery.com/raid-recovery-tutorial.htm
During step 3, when prompted to select disks, right click the list of disks, select "Load image file". The image files appear in the list same as regular physical devices.
