Hey all, long time reader on this forum, first time posting.
I'm having some trouble trying to set up multiple RAIDs on my PC. I have had several hard drives fail on me in the past (on other computers) so I am a bit parranoid about losing data. Raid1 is my friend
So, Currently I have 2 RaptorX 150GB hard drives in RAID1 for my OS (Vista). and I had a 500gb drive for storage, but ran out of room. So, I bought 2 1.5TB Seagates. I installed the drives, formatted them and initialized them using Vistas Disk Management and they are both functioning fine, they show up in MY computer and in the bios.
The problem is, when I hit F10 at startup to view my raids, it shows my current RAID setup, but the option (N for New Array) is greyed out and unselectable. Also, in the Nvidia Control Panel, under storage, there is no option for create array.
Is my Mobo even capable of multiple raids? If so, what am I doing wrong?
Have you enabled the new drives to be RAID'ed in the BIOS? If not, they would not show in the RAID configuring screen. BIOS lets individual SATA channels to opt in or out of the onboard RAID.
