By the way I have one set as the master and the other as the slave on the
first controller cable and in the correct order.

Should both drives be formated and partitioned prior to this use?

I have this mobo and I'm trying to get the raid setup. I have two maxtor
20gb drives and can not get my system to recognize them.

The controller and disk drives are in the device manager, but I can't
access
these drives via any file management program.

I've tried all four raid options and nothing seems to work, yet the
controller and whatever raid settings I try are listed in the device
manager
under disk drives.

any suggestions?

No dual channel ram. That takes a serious performance hit. P4's LOVE

chip and ram in both and saw a BIG performance gain going to a dual

board.
