I just built a new computer and had some issues doing so, so I didn't set up RAID Iike I wanted to. Windows XP's preinstaller only recognized 127gb out of the 250gb on each HD. So I figured trying to get RAID working at that point wasn't a good idea. I installed SP2, and it sees my 250gb now, but I had to put the space beyond 127gb on a new partition. So, I have 4 partitions, which is really annoying. Anyway, I'd like to get RAID 1 going. My motherboard (ABIT IP35 Pro Snake) has a built-in SATA RAID controller. When I set this up am I going to have to wipe my HD's and reinstall Windows? Will I run into the same problem of it only recognizing up to 127gb? Any advice is appreciated as this will be my first time trying to set up RAID. Please don't advise me to install Vista by the way, I'm not considering that as an option at this point. Thank you!
