Mr-Reece,
I received a notice that my e-mail to you was unsuccessful. Yes, I removed
the obvious.
The manuals you need to look at are:
1. Look on your motherboard CD (Other/SCSI/Raid_ap/hostraid_ug.pdf).
2. Website URL Link
http://www.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/FileList/NewTech/tech_scsi_7902_001_e.pdf
I believe all the questions you may have can be answered in these two
manuals. But the information is difficult to understand.
By the way, you change the SCSI ID of the drives by changing the jumpers on
the hard drive itself. To setup two SCSI drives in a Raid array, they must
have different SCSI IDs and must be on the same SCSI Channel. The Adaptec
AIC-7902W Chipset on your motherboard is dual channel. That means both of
the hard drives will be operating on the same channel and using different
jumper configurations.
It is easiest to setup SCSIRaid with a new installation of the OS. On page
43 of 72 (page 5-3) of the HostRaid User's Guide is an explanation of how to
install SCSIRaid on an existing system.
Good Luck
Jeff
