SATA Raid 0 Help!
« on: December 25, 2004, 07:22:58 PM »
I got an Asus K8N Mobo for Christmas and have 2 Maxtor 120 GB Drives.  I figured out how to set up the Raid array in the bios, but am having a hell of a time getting it to install windows xp.  Do I hit F6 to install the Raid Driver?  I have tried with no luck.  Any help would be appreciated.

you should have got a driver CD with your MOBO.  the sata/raid driver should be on there.

Yeah I found it.  Damn Asus.  Talk about hidden.  The driver or MakeF6Disk folder is not explained anywhere in the docs or online.  Also it is buried under 6 subfolders somewhere where no one would even think about looking for it.  I found my answer not on the Asus forums or in the manual, but in newegg\'s feedback.  Yeah mm I read the damn manual.

I seem to recall havin the same experience   with an Asus board. Capcom could explain better, I know I helped him build a server with dual Opertons running an ASUS board and SATA RAID and I do recall us having issues with the documentation on SATA RAID.

Now the joy of reinstalling everything.  After getting around the raid problem and the subsequent "nvraidservice error" when I installed my Creative drivers everything seems to be good.  One thing though, these Maxtor HD\'s are a lot more noisy than the Western Digitals I am used to.
