After reading an article in Tom's Hardware page about software RAIDs in Windows 2000/XP, I decided to give it a shot and set up a pair of 40GB hard drives in a Windows XP RAID 0 array. One disk is a Samsung and the other a Maxtor. I set up the array without any problems.

What bothers me is that after I created the array both disks are displayed as "Healthy (At Risk)" in the Computer Management window, which makes me think the array is about to crash. Are all software RAID 0 arrays displayed as being "at risk", or is there something wrong with mine? I've ran error checks several times and no errors have been found. Everything seems to be working fine and performace good (32,000 in Sandra 2002). How can I remove the "at risk" status?
