Some background: I installed what I thought were the right raid drivers onto the hdds and set up a RAID0. But, after booting the computer, it said one of the hdds had an error. So, i disconnected the other hdd and ran the WD diagnostic check on the hdd. It said it was fine, so I'm assuming i installed the wrong drivers.

Does anyone know which driver i should chose to load onto the floppy before installing the os? There is a list of about 10 to choose from. Also, during the OS installation, after pressing "F6" there is a list of about 4 to choose from as well. Does anyone know which of these four i should choose? Thanks a bunch,

These drives are WD 750GB drives BTW (7500AAKS I think)
 
The list of drivers from the cd are as follows:

1)GIGARAID
2)S13114 BASE DRIVER
3)SI3114 RAID DRIVER
4)VIA 6410 RAID
5)PROMISE 20779 SATA DRIVER
6)PROMISE 20779 SATA RAID DRIVER
7)INTEL MATRIX STORAGE MANAGER 32 BIT
8)INTEL MATRIX STORAGE MANAGER 64 BIT
9)SI3132 BASE (32 BIT) DRIVER
A)SI3132 BASE (64 BIT) DRIVER
B)SI3132 RAID (32 BIT) DRIVER
C)SI3132 RAID (64 BIT) DRIVER
D)ITE 82LL DIRVER
E)GIGABYTE SATA-RAID DRIVER 32BIT
F)GIGABYTE SATA-RAID DRIVER 64BIT
0)EXIT

The list i can choose from after pressing f6 during the xp installation are:

INTEL(R) ICH9 SATA RAID CONTROLLER (DESKTOP ICH9R)
INTEL(R) ICH9 SATA AHCI CONTROLLER (DESKTOP ICH9R)
INTEL(R) 82801HEM SATA RAID CONTROLLER (MOBIE ICH8M-E)
INTRL(R) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI CONTROLLER (MOBIE ICH8M-E/M)

My question is which ones should I choose. Thanks,

would say
INTEL(R) ICH9 SATA RAID CONTROLLER (DESKTOP ICH9R)
@ F6 prompt since you want raid0.
 
Any input please? It takes like 4 hours to format these drives so I'd like to do this right so i wont have to do it again. Thanks a bunch,
