hi guys, please let me quickly brief this up.
My rig (in my sig) is running on windows XP w/ sp2. I recently score 2 HD's on frys and decided to set up a raid0 to run them. i decided to use gigabyte raid controller (purple ports) to set up my array, main reason is my comp bootup a lot faster comparing to ICH9R raid controller.
Anyway so I correctly install the Hd's, i'm sure i correctly set up my raid0. I installed the latest gigabyte raid controller driver. Everything looks fine, even see the raid in DEVICE MANAGER under "Disk Drives". Yet I do NOT see my raid drive anywhere in MY COMPUTER, all i see is the partitions of my 3rd HDD which runs on its own (non-raid) and has the windows installed.
does anyone know how to make my raid drive appear in MY COMPUTER ?
thanks in advance.
