I've just got a new PC setup and I can't get my newly built P5W DH Deluxe mobo to detect my 500GB Deskstar T7K250 SATA's from the other drive as they were before in Windows XP.
My old setup was like this...
1 x 74GB Raptor SATA (used for windows only)
2 x 500GB Deskstar T7K250 SATA (used for storage only)
None of these SATA drivers were raided at all.
I'm trying to do the same hard drive set up for my new P5W DH Deluxe but I can't see the data from my 2 x 500GB Deskstar T7K250 SATA's.
It just sees them as normal drives and asks me to format them.
Do I need to enable them by pressing F6 and installing a special SATA driver for it, prior to installing windows? Is there a standard SATA driver for my Raptor and Hitachi drives or will any SATA driver do?
Thanks in advance to all replies!
