Hi guys,
I have an ASUS Rampage IV Extreme motherboard that I'm very sure has UEFI. I set it to RAID mode in the BIOS and managed to join my 4x3TB WD Green hard drives. I then proceeded to installing Windows 7 on the single partition created and I finished off by installing Intel Rapid Storage Technology enterprise (IRSTe). My problem is that, even though IRSTe and Disk Management are showing the total space and recognizing the RAID 5, I can't seem to change it to GPT or delete any volume, so that My Computer shows the 8TB instead of 2TB. In disk management, Format, Add Mirror and Delete volume are greyed out, and I know it is because my system files are on that Partition, only Properties and Help are available options on the unallocated space. What can I do to resolve this?
Thanks for your help.
