New build help

speedyj · 10 Sep 2010 at 20:48

Just built my new system and having some harddrive issues.

i7 930
Asus P6X58D-E
6GB Patriot 1600mhz
Corsair C300 64GB for OS installed on the Marvell 6gb connector
2 x Samsung F3 1TB for RAID 0 on the intel ICH10R

Installed it all and ran the RAID setup etc but I cannot see the HD's in windows at all, I can see them under device manager but not anywhere else.

Am I missing something obvious here do I need to load a driver for them ?

Even tried deleting the RAID and still cannot see the 2 Samsung HD's.

Please help.

Most likely you will need to install the raid driver for them. ( have you formatted them? go into computer management in administrative tools, then go to errrm something like disk management. )

disk management within administrator tools.

try allocating the free space.

Have a look in disc management in control panel, you may need to format the drives and assign a drive letter.

Thanks guy's, I am such a dullard at times!

SSD is reading fast at 360 plus with super fast access and the F3's in RAID are no slouch either.
