We perform full back up of our Windows 2008 R2 server every weekend on alternate locations at two different external hard disk. I am able to mount two vhd( two drives) as virtual disk and shows online but one of the drive shows not initialized when i mount it has read only checked.If I unchecked read only option the drive shows online but when I try to open the the drive I get "Files are corrupted or unreadable" .And also all the three drives are mountable only with read only unchecked.I have the same issue on both of my external disk. Please suggest a solution for this issue and also what would be the best recovery plan?
