Question : Problem: How to determine the RAID 5 PARITY ROTATION using a hex editor- or using any other method?

Does anyone know how to determine the RAID 5 PARITY ROTATION using a hex editor- or using any other method? Is there software that can be used to easily determine this?

All that I have in my possession are the drives. I know that the raid is hardware-based; however, I am unaware of the model and make of the RAID controller involved.

Also, I am interested in any other utilities that can assist me in determining the physical order of the drives when unknown.

Any advice????

Thanks
