Can anybody point me to some resources. My system drive sh!t the bed last night, and not sure if I can just pop a new drive in, and re-instal from scratch or not. Will a new install see the old data drives and import them? Any advice?

I would plug the system drive into another machine and see if you can at least recover the contents of the D: drive -assuming there is anything on there you care about.

If you put a new drive in and re-install WHS, your other hard drives should show once the install is complete and your server is up. Then it's just a matter of re-pointing the shares in the Server Folders and Hard Drives tab of the WHS console.
