Hi, I wondering if somebody with RAID experience can answer something. I currently have a 120GB drive that I want to replace with two new 250GB drives - using RAID-1.
I read a little about migrating. Can I do that in my case or will I need to reinstall windows? Maybe I can do it in steps, adding one drive at a time? Or maybe there's a way to do both new drives in one step - as long as all three drives are in at once?
This "Intel® Matrix Storage Manager" chart from Intel says "Migration/Supported on: "RAID Ready" to 2-drive RAID 1": http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/imsm/sb/CS-026607.htm. Mine is the column-1 Intel® 82801ER I/O Controller Hub (ICH5R).
Thanks alot!
