Hey everyone, just trying to setup a new RAID5 array on a Highpoint 4320 controller with (x4) 1.0TB RE3 drives. No problems initializing array in RAID BIOS or installing drivers in Windows, but I can't seem to get the OS to recognize and assign it a drive letter. The drives are all good as listed by the Highpoint software, and HD Tune is able to scan and benchmark the new array, but I don't see it listed in the Disk Management snap-in. That's where I usually go to get a drive letter assigned to a new drive...is setting up this RAID array a somewhat different process??
Certainly appreciate the advice.
[WinXP SP3, Highpoint RocketRaid 4320 RAID5 w/ 1.0 TB (x4) WD RE3's in backplane, External 1.0 TB eSATA as boot drive (until I get my second replacement VelociRaptor from WD...took them 8 days to process an advance RMA - I wonder why I'm still buying from them.]
