Hello everybody,
I have a quick question about RAID volumes, and forgive me but I'm a total noob when it comes to RAID.
I originally had a 1.5TB drive with everything, then I installed two 750GB drives in raid0 which worked fine. Both the raid0 array and the 1.5TB storage drive showed up in windows explorer as discreet drives. But then I installed two 500GB drives in a raid1 array (set up through the Intel Matrix raid driver like the other array) so that I could have mirrored copies for my more important files. However, this new array does not show up in window explorer. When I first boot to windows 7 desktop there is a message from the taskbar stating that data protection is enabled and functioning properly and when I click it it opens up the Intel software which shows all my drives as they were set up. Yet still no drive volume in explorer. In the way I have this set up, is this new array just mirroring my other array?
By the way, the OS is on the two 750GB drives in raid0
