Raid monitoring software

Anyone know for some software to monitor the condition of my raid. I have had some slow boot ups recently and also recieved an error with one of my drives in the raid at boot. But other than "error occured" I dont get any more information.

There does not appear to be any disk errors listed in the event viewer hence the search for something to try and monitor what is going on.

If its your motherboard RAID they normally come with an application on the CD.

Other than that go to the manufacturer and they should have a download for the specific controller.

Thanks i'll check the CD tonight when i get home. Descriptions on the Asus website are not that great especially when im not sure what im looking for.

If you are using the (Intel) ICH10R controller, then download and install Intel Rapid Storage Technology - 12/15/2010, 10.1.0.1008 (3rd one down), this will not only install the latest drivers, but also the Intel Rapid Storage software which will let you monitor the RAID array...
