Q about RAID 0, bit lost.

[OmegaMerc]

Just finished putting in 2x250GB (read as 232gb for w/e reason) RAID 0 wd' SATA II drives. When I setup RAID0 through the raid util they are seen and configured. My Q is why isnt windows picking it up through disk management. Drives were OEM so nothing came about with them, any help apreciated.

Oh my setup is raptor on standard SATA, 200gb on regular SATA, and the two WD's are on RAID 3/4 inputs. I cant see the two WD's in BIOS unless I put them in 1/2 sata RAID slots and enable RAID 1/2 "master" drives, but then that goes and kills my other two drives, not allowing my to boot windows.

you have to install RAID drivers when you install windows or it will not see them as a single drive.

I think i have never used a RAId config and a non bootable partion.

:slap: Damn it, IF i install a 2nd partition of WXP, and install the raid would It be seen on BOTH windows XP's? (later removing one of the newer of those two wxps)
