Hello,
I have a Sil3124r5 based card in an XPSP3 machine with four 2TB drives attached. The SATARAID5Manager sees all the drives OK as 1.81TiB drives.
I want to set up four 1860GB RAID5 groups from the drives, but the SATARAID5Manager wont let me.
I can make 2 TB groups but XP cant see them. I can make 1 TB groups, but the card is limited to four groups, so I waste 1.6 TB. I can make 999 GB groups, but I cant make 1860 GB groups because the SATARAID5Manager will only accept 3 digits before the GB.
The latest version of SATARAID5Manager for the 3132 card does allow 4 digits before the GB, but it doesnt work with the 3124 card.
Does anybody have any other ideas?
