Hi,

I just replaced a bad Asus Maximus VI Formula board that had an issue. (i.e. went to sleep and never woke up!) I had 2 SSDs in RAID 1, and 2 hard drives also in RAID 1. When the board went to sleep and never woke up, I removed the disks to further troubleshoot the problem.

I will be getting my replacement board in the next few days. Other than telling the BIOS that I'm wanting to use RAID, and making the disks be on the same SATA channels, what do I need to do to be able to boot back into Windows 8 and see that the 2 RAID arrays are OK.

Will the BIOS care or even notice that the board's serial number is different? Does it matter?

Thanks,
