Windows doesn't display correct RAID hard drive space

[rscheibner]

I just installed 2 250gb maxtor diamond 10 drives configured in RAID 0/striping.

Windows "my computer" tells me only 233 gb is available. I should have closer to 500 mb.

WIndows Service pack 2 (SP2) has been installed.

What gives?


Epox 9npa + ultra nvida 4 motherboard
amd 3200 venice cpu
asus silencer 256 6600 video card
2-1gig corsair memory
2 maxtor diamond 10 250 gb 7200 rpm 16 mb cache
sony dru 810-a dvd burner
antec case

You installed in in RAID 1 would be the only thing I can think of.

Unless you only made a 233 GB partition and the rest is unallocated space.

I didn't install of the raid drivers.

Rookie mistake!
