I just put together a new windows 10 computer, but my Areca array doesn't come up. I did not see an opportunity to install RAID drivers during the clean install. Windows is on a standalone SSD connected to the motherboard, the RAID6 array is for storage. I installed the .INF drivers within Windows, but that wasn't any help. I'm probably missing something obvious. I don't upgrade PCs that often, so this is a new one for me.

Thanks,

Edit: I can't connect to the card over Ethernet either.
 
Posted this in the Areca owners thread here:

Edit: resolved, see the link above if you are wanting to run the latest "enthusiast" Gigabyte motherboard with a RAID card. Some say it is ill-advised. And they may be right. But it is hard to resist the features.
