I cannot figure why I cannot create a bootable 3TB Raid 0 Volume.
When ever I try to create 3 TB Array Volume; it become (Un bootable)
MB is Gigabyte P35C DS3R
HDD are 3 Sata WD 1001FALS
Now if I reduce the Size of the Volume then it become bootable
Can some body explain to me what is going on here ?
Here is a screen shot what I am talking about ICR Screen

That is what I was thinking.
However in XP (boot of the other Drive) I cannot see as a Volume. Now Device Manger and Intel Matrix Storage softwere see is just fine.
I also tried diskpart it does not list the Raid Volume
 
XP (32 bit) does not support volumes over 2TB unless you use 4k blocks.
 
You can not boot to < 2TB on XP (MBR formated) it would also have to be formated GPT and have a UEFI system bios to boot it.
 
this is a disaster waiting to happen! Hope you plan on storing a lot of non-important stuff on your raid 0 array! But since your already planning to put an os on it, probably not... not to mention it can't be done using GPT partion.
