help creating a raid1 array using Intel Matrix Storage Manager

[jarthel]

I have 2 drives here. 1st drive contains my files and the other is empty (no partition).

I want to create a RAID1 array using the data from my 1st drive. On the Intel software, I select "create raid volume from existing hard drive". I select the 1st drive as source and the 2nd as a member.

When I clicked on "finish" at the end of the wizard, I get an error instead of watching the RAID created. The error given is very generic ("cannot create raid volume" or something to that effect).

I am using 8.6 version of the software.

Any ideas on how to accomplish on what I want? Or maybe help me solve my Intel software problem?

Thank you!

put a ntfs partition on the 2nd drive and see if that helps
