I have just got this board i was hoping to setup a IDE Raid Array, after reading the manual it says connect 1 hard drive to IDE RAID 1 and 1 hard drive to IDE RAID 2, am i missing something or did Asus forget to add a second IDE RAID port? all i have is a blue RAID 1 connector on the edge of the board when i connect both hard drives to that connector it only sees 1 drive not them both? there is no RAID 2 so how do i configure a raid array using IDE?
the only way i can see is to get a paralel to Serial converter and connect both drives to the Serial ATA ports for RAID it was nice to get 2 serial cables with the board but they could of included an converter like Abit
obviously i dont want any more exspense really so can you have IDE RAID on this board and if so how?
Thanks in advance
