I've taken apart 2 pc's to try and use a ssd for the OS and use 3 sata drives on RAID 0 with the option to partition. I've had this in my mind for a while and I remember reading that it could be done but I can't seem to get it to work.
I'm using a crosshair III board and the only way I can see that I can get it to work is to have the storage options in bios set to RAID and go through the southbridge controller and set up the 3 drives on LD2 and completely ignore LD1.
There's noting in the uility to state I don't want that ssd raided.
Now it's either bsod andrestarted as it couldn't load from the ssd or it can't install an os as I haven't got the driver for the raid, but obiously it doesn't need the drive as the raid isn't needed for the os.
I couldn't see an otion in the win7 disc utility o raid, only partion the single drives.
Am I missing something?
(gonna be so naffed off if I can't to it)
edit: finally typed in some words in google that gave me a response. gonna try doing what I did but loading the dives, seems silly to do that but apparently that seems the way to go
