Major is exactly right, I'm using old parts for a new build and I'm actually very happy with it. If you had felt the pain of my old rig you would understand the blissful difference. It seems like I've figured out all my problems after I got off work today. I reformatted both 160gig drives and alloca...

Haha Nope, only thing in the PCI slots is a soundblaster card.

It really had me stumped...up until I formated both drives and re-installed on an 8gb partition, then used the rest of both drives for a 282 Gb Raid 0 array.

Im all sorted out now.

Haha well all my old stuff from my run down computer is still AGP/ddr1 so I wanted the most cost effective upgrade.

Thanks for your insight and time.

Do I want my fan to blow on my heatsink or blow away from my heatsink to pull heat off? also there are two arrows on the side of the fan. One pointing up and one pointing away from the fan in the direction of air flow. Does the Arrow indicate which way the air blows? Should the side that the Heat se...

I have read through the entire manual today looking for that answer but it didn't make mention of RAID in any way.
Is it done through the BIOS? should I just designate them as the same drive and it will treat them as such?

Edit: yeaaaaah...i feel real dumb after those two suggestions.

How do I set up a RAID 0 config?
