Hi all,
I have recently purchased a new 250 GB SATA Hard Drive as my existing 40 GB IDE Hard Drive, which I use to store all my data on has run out of space. I currently have two 160GB SATA Drives in Raid 0 array, in SATA's 1 & 2.
I have tried to install the thrid drive as a standalone drive, but the computer cannot see it. I have pluged this drive into the SATA 3 slot on the motherboard and enabled this slot in the BIOS. On the first run if installing it, it recognise that a new piece of hardware had been added and requested to install the driver. After sometime, it finally installed the Silicon Image Driver (the existing Raid is using the Intel Driver), but the drive does not show up.
Am I doing something really stupid or missing something. Any help greatly appreciated.
As a matter of interest I am using Windows Vista Beta 2 at the moment, not sure if this is the problem though.
Many Thanks
Thox
