I currently am trying to set up a fresh install of XP proffesional using 2 IBM Deskstar 60GXP 60Gb hd's in a raid-0 array using Promise Fastrak TX2. I know this is also called striping. This is the first raid setup for me, so i don't know much.. I need to know how to configure the hd's (master/slave) then how do I partition the drives. (pri dos\extended dos..etc) Then I know you have to go into disk management in XP and stripe them, but I can't ..it's greyed out..My ideal setup would be about 15gb for system on a c: partition then use the rest of the space joined with the second hd. I don't know if that can be done but I want to get these drive striped together so I can get faster throughput. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I will be checking back here everyday..also feel free to email me...mlau318@hotmail.com.
Thanks in Advance
