This was timely, I was confusing myself trying to install the RAID driver software, and kept getting a message from the Intel install software, that my board didn't meet the minimum hardware requirements for installation [WTF!!], and then it would close the install program. I finally figured that unless RAID is enabled in the BIOS, the Intel software thinks that the board doesn't support RAID.

So now I have files spread across a couple of drives, that I want to use in RAID mode. Can I enable RAID on these drives without losing the data - or do I first need to backup that data somewhere else before proceeding... My boot drive is NOT one of the drives I want to use in the RAID array.
