So here are the parts
MB - Asus P6T Deluxe V2
HDD - 2 Seagate Barracudas 7200.11 (bought at the same time) 160GB each
Using Latest Intel ICH10R RAID driver from Asus for this board
O/S - Windows XP Pro with SP2
Originally I have used these two drive using the ACHI driver and as stand alone hard drives, basically C and D drives of 160 each. Drive C had O/S and programs and drive D was just extra space for putting music, videos, saved programs over the years.
Now I copied my personal data to another computer, copied the intel RAID drivers from Asus for this board on to a floppy, formatted both drives - wiped clean, set up the BIOS to RAID, rebooted and press Ctrl + I and entered the RAID creation thingy (like that terminology?).
So here is what happened, during the RAID set up it saw both drives as non-RAID. Did the create RAID array, did the type I wanted (RAID0, Stripe 128k) and left everything else the way it was. I got a confirmation that the RAID array was created. Exited out and proceeded to begin the Windows XP install and pressed F6 when asked for the driver. All was well.
Now being old like Kyle B., my eye sight was off. I did not pay too much attention, but just follow along. Everything worked great. XP faster, ran HD Tach, got low 200's, installed everything, put back my backed up material and been running for over a week. Now I just noticed (and I do remember now seeing this color code, but paid little attention to at times) that during boot up, it shows one of the drives as an "error occurred (0)". The other drive is fine and at the top it says that the array is in good health. But as I mentioned, everything is running fine. Ran Speedfan and CPUID Hardware and HDD temps are between 25-30 (as when before in ACHI mode)
Can someone let me know what gives?
I read a similar incident that occurred 2 years ago in these forums, but could not make heads or tails of it. Is there a band-aid solution? Is there a correct "painful" solution? Or just to ignore? What say all of you?
