Right guys,

Need some help.

Ive just got the copy of Windows 7 Home Premium. But i want to setup my system in Raid 0.

I have 1 SSD for my Operating System, however i have 2 x 2TB Samsungs. I want to Raid0 these and have 4 TB in total. However my mother board isnt letting me and my harddrives dont pop up once im into windows.

I have formatted them and one of the hard drives has had 100mb stolen from it for a partition i can't remove nor can i format?!?!?!

MY mother board is the Gigabyte X58A-UD3R with i7 OC'd by Overclockers to 4.0ghz.

Can anyone help me get these harddrives into Raid 0 please and help them show properly in windows 7?

MY Harddrives are plugged into Master & Slave Ports 5 if thats a problem?

Its just these two are the Sata 3.0
 
Right, i have RAID 0 them. However.... my SSD isnt appearing in the bios now...

I have swapped the SATA cables with ones i know are working, i have changed the power connecters etc and still nothing.

IS it goosed?

Does it need to be ina specific SATA slot?

Right,

I think ive given you guys the wrong information.

I swapped the ports over from the two Samsungs. I placed them in the SATA ports that my SSD and DVD Drive were in. They then were placed into the other ports the Samsungs were in. I switched my PC on, went into the BIOS and my SSD wasnt showing.....?!?!?!

I went into the Raid Config and Raid 0'd the Samsungs. Windows 7 only showed 2TB of the 4TB when installed... :confused:

I then deactivated the RAID and had the Hard Drives Seperate....and installed windows.... Still no SSD in Windows nor in BIOS. IDE mode is active at the moment on the DVD and SSD port...

I have tried changing ports, placing the SSD in the original port and changed the power connecter with know working ones, but still nothing.
