Hello all,

I just purchased 2 new WD 1TB Caviar Blacks that are 6.0gbs sata connection. I already have 2 Ocz Vertex2 in Raid0 and have 2 WD raptors in Raid0. Question is. How do I add theses 2 new drives in a HARDWARE Raid0 without having to reload Win7 Pro 64bit...

Thanks

Plug in the hard drives
Set up another RAID 0 array with those drives in the BIOs
Make sure that your PC is still booting from the SSDs
?????
Profit
 
When set to raid mode there should be a screen from the raid bios after the main part of the POST. This screen should tell you the key combination to get into the raid configuration. From there you can set up your new array.

Note that the raid provided by the motherboard is almost certainly NOT true hardware raid. To get true hardware raid you have to spend big money on controller cards.
