S\\Setting up RAID with 965P-DQ6 (rev. 2.0)
I have a Gigabyte 965sp-dq6 and I'm not exactly sure how to set up a
mirrored volume on it. In the BIOS do I set it to RAID, install the second drive, and boot into Windows? I have the floppy disk with the F6 drivers. Also, there is a normal hard drive currently installed. I'm hoping I can just install the second drive and build the volume. Justin -- |

install the 2 drives...set BIOS to RAID........when system starts you will
get RAID configuration utility...watch for it Configure the RAID...........chances are you will need to format.....maybe create partitions if you so chose Then reboot and install the OS of your choice....XP I guess by the F6 option which you will need to use to load the Raid Sata drivers peter "Justin" wrote in message ...

If win is currently installed on a sata drive, having added second sata
drive, then set bios to raid enabled, on reboot you should be able to enter raid config and build the array. Thats the usuall scenario, however your mobo manual will give specific instructions, as raid setup often varys by mobo "Justin" wrote in message ...

So I can't install a second drive and rebuild the volume?
I'd rather not reinstall the OS.
