Hello folks!

My configuration is as follows:

Operating System: Windows Server
VIA RAID Tool
ASUS P5VCD motherboard

2 SATA drives mirrored as ARRAY 0 (C
2 SATA 1TB drives mirrored as ARRAY 1

I have always had the first array. BIOS sees it, VIA RAID sees it in Windows. It is the C: Drive, and everything works fine.

Just added 2 new 1TB drives as a second ARRAY. BIOS sees it, VIA RAID Tool in Windows sees it. However, I cannot assign it a drive letter.

Any thoughts on how to use these drives in windows for storage?

Thanks in advance!!!

Using a command line
Open Command Prompt.

Type:

diskpart

At the DISKPART prompt, type:

list volume

Make note of the number of the simple volume whose drive letter you want to assign, change, or remove.

At the DISKPART prompt, type:

select volume n

Select the volume, where n is the volume's number, whose drive letter you want to assign, change, or remove.

At the DISKPART prompt, type one of the following:

assign letter=L

Where L is the drive letter you want to assign or change.
