Hey guys, never been into this section before, but I'm guessing this is a good place to ask. If not, mods, please move, but also let me know via PM :p

Okay, so I'm going to be setting up a raid array featuring two Hitachi Deskstar SATA II HDD's in a RAID-0 array. Although, the DFI board I have came with a floppy disk for RAID drivers, I do not have a floppy drive. I have heard about a program called nLite which can integrate the drivers, and necessary stuff, and even do an unattended install of Windows XP. However, in the directions, I was a bit confused on how to set it all up. The link is here (http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=51140&st=0&p=356029&#entry356029).

So, what I'm asking is for assistance in being able to create the ISO. There was much confusion on integration and on what parts I use exactly. So, let me know! Thanks guys!

If you wanna install Windows on RAID array you MUST set it first - so you NEED that floppy (don`t know if those drivers could be installed from USB storage).

I used the info from here http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=51140&st=0&p=356029&#entry356029. No floppy was required.

I'm not sure that's correct, at least not all of the time.

I've always set up my raid array from EPROM/ROM software, meaning I do not need the disk.
