Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Are you talking putting an internal drive in a raid array with an external? That's just a bad idea if so. Too many ways for things to go wrong. You also need to research what you want the raid for, and which raid level you want. You need to check out this link.

First off, you probably don't need it. The speed increase (when there even is one) is minimal. Then again, half the people on these forums don't "NEED" the things they ask about. Myself included!
With that being said, I'd open up your bios. There should be an option to enable the onboard RAID. Once that's enabled, watch your computer closely when it boots. There may be a key combination to press to get into the RAID setup mode. It should be pretty easy from here on out.
Also, a note, if I may. The onboard RAID on most motherboards only supports RAID 0 and RAID 1 (And JBOD, for whatever that's worth) - If you want RAID 5 (Impossible with two drives, requires at least three), you will most likely need to purchase a controller card.
