Hello - thanks in advance to Toms Community.
I just got and installed my new Western Digital Raptor 10,000 rpm drive (300gb).
I plugged it into the first sata2 slot on my Gigabyte X48-DQ6 board.
When I installed Vista 64 bit business, I had my previous Sata2 F6 pre-install floppy disk and driver from my last Windows Install (of same o/s and disk), but when I go into the load driver for raid section of the install at start, it doesn't want to show or accept this driver.
Does Raptor 10,000 rpm drives not compatible with RAID drivers?
This exact same Sata2 F6 pre-install driver on the floppy worked for my former hard driver, a standard 7200 rpm 500gb seagate, on the same Vista 64 bit install.
What am I doing wrong?
I have not changed my bios setting from the last install as well. It is set to RAID in the bios.
Please help!
