Description

The official support scheme for RAID configuration is the following:

• Acronis True Image Home 2010 supports hardware
  RAID arrays of all the popular types both with and without the Plus Pack
  add-on, in any case. Thus, the supported hardware RAIDs are:
  • RAID 0
  • RAID 1
  • RAID 5
  • RAID 0+1
  • RAID 1+0

    As to specific RAID controllers - when running the product in
    Windows, the product will support them if Windows itself does. From
    Acronis Bootable Media most of the RAID controllers are supported.

• Acronis True Image Home 2010 does not support software RAID
  implementations (Windows Dynamic Disks, GPT volumes etc) if Plus Pack
  is not installed. See also Acronis
  True Image Home Does Not Support Dynamic Disks or Disks with GUID
  Partition Tables (GPT);
• Acronis True Image Home 2010 Plus Pack enables the support
  for Windows Dynamic Disks and GPT volumes that are set up in any
  configuration except for RAID 5 and RAID 1 (Mirrored) which are
  not supported even with Plus Pack. See also Acronis
  True Image Home 2010 Plus Pack: Dynamic Disks and Disks with GUID
  Partition Tables (GPT) Support.
