As you can see the performance is not as high as would be expected.
Also the drives do not show up in windows, only in programs like hdtach, speedfan, hdtune etc.
And in the storage manager program the drives show up as 0MB/s.
What is wrong with my raid array?

I am using the latest drivers, but I will try to update the controllers bios, strange thing is though that in the bios, the first drive shows up as SCSI II, when it's SCSI III, and the other two drives interface speeds don't show up at all, neither do their capacities. The bios is also extremely annoying as it does not support usb keyboards. Idiot programmers.

Thanks, got usb working now. All the scsi pins are undamaged and the controller termination has been tried on both auto and on, and there is an lvd active terminator on the end of the cable.
On the hard drives there are two sets of what look like half size jumpers which haven't been set, one on the underside and one on the back, are these supposed to be set to anything? On the 80-68pin adaptor there are jumpers which I have used to set the device ID and synchronous mode.

After upgrading my pc, the drives have now magically appeared and I have managed to install windows on them. Still trying to resolve the throughput issue though, interestingly though it doesn't actually seem any slower than my sata hard drive.
