Read lots of stuff, but I'm feeling like trial and error will take 20 hours of work
Want to install 2 250G sata drives in a Raid-1.
Want to use a 74G sata raptor as OS / Prog disk
Gigabyte GA-8KNXP Intel875P, WinXP Pro
It has the 4 onboard sata connectors:
SATA0_SB / SATA1_SB (manual says just Raid0 is supported)
SATA0_SII / SATA1_SII (these are the raidable ones I think)
I have F6 installed the drivers for SII.
Problem #1 is that SII connections do not recognize any drives when I plug the drives in - either the raptor or the 250s. I have tried to play around with the BIOS settings.
But can someone start me fresh. What's a blow by blow.
I really appreciate it. I'd rather learn from you then spend 20 hours bent over a damn board.
Thanks
