ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard wtih onboard Silicon Image

Hello

If you ahve them setup as Raid 0 it will only show 1 drive
combined, you won't see 2 seperate drive, I do have the same
setup Raid with 2 120 WD drives and they work great

Little info for you. And by the way, great choice on SATA RAID. This is
an extremely fast setup that can actually use the actual bandwidth of
SATA
