put it in your computer, leave it alone, then go to windows, install the drivers for it, turn off your computer, plug your hd's into it, boot back into windows, should be fine.
 
it say something about the led connecter and what one do i hook the hd to the blue or the white one
 
First, what card is it? Second, the manual that should have come with it will clearly explain how to install it, and how to step through the BIOS of the RAID chip to set up your array. Not to sound like a dick, but your buying a RAID card to set up an array, you should already have the knowledge of how it works, etc. If not, your RAID array might not be functioning for a while until you do some reading on the subject. Be sure to back up all your important data before you start though.

Okay, we'll try again. What card is it? Brand, model, etc. If you go to their site, I am sure you can download a manual for it. Your not very clear in how you want it configured, so unless you start giving us all the relevant info, we can't do anything for you besides tell you to RTFM.

Third try....what brand and model is the card??? Your not going to speed your hard drive up by moving it to a drive controller, unless you have a very old system. That card is for setting up RAID arrays. Is this what your trying to do? I would take some time and do some reading about hard drives, controllers, etc. If your moving your system drive to the controller, most likely you will need to re-install the OS as well. If you expect help, you have to help us out as well, by giving us the necessary info.
