• 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.

This is probably a stupid question but...

I'm getting another HD to go with the 120GB i have in it already (SATA), can I just plug another HD in and will windows recognize it? What do I have to do to just to use it as storage?
 
When I got my second SATA HDD, I plugged it in, booted up, and BOOM, that nice thing called plug and play came into the picture and took care of the rest. I started using it for storage right away. Good luck with your new HDD. :)
 
about step one in your sig. I am not able to hit F6, it just doesn't do anything, and I know for sure the keyboard is working because I was able to hit a key to boot from cd. also, no I do not have one of those keys on my keyboard that enables the F buttons. I installed windows anyway, and from the device manager I insatlled the RAID drivers. I hope that worked fine. only problem now is that windows keeps seeing my sata drive as a removable drive and I dont' know why. is this a problem? what should I do? thanks.

make sure you have F Lock turned on, so the F keys work
