RAID uses multiple drives. So if you only have 1 drive, you aren't using raid. You could try JBOD.

If you are REPLACING the drive don't set up a raid. If you are adding this LIKE drive to a system then get another one and create a RAID 0,1 or JBOD.

WHAT kind of cables are you using? Are you going to the Red Serial-ATA sil3114 or the Black nForce4 Serial-ATA SATA. You need the right cables going into the correct slot.

you pick a minimum of 80GB on your OScontinual if its living house windows. set up only sluggish and heavy applications on your SSD consisting of the OS, Photoshop and so on. For media it doesn't remember; mechanical drives will be quick adequate. RAID has no longer some thing to do with the not basic disk helping it. you could placed any bunch of HDDs in RAID. And the SSD is also SATA BTW, in spite of the indisputable fact that it truly is purely no longer waiting to saturate the three.0Gbps SATA2 bus. in case you position 2 SSDs in RAID, each and each and every could have its personal 3.0Gbps bus. also you could't use SSDs with a hardware RAID card. except the RAID card specially helps SSD, it is going to maximum in all probability fail to authentic create an array with SSD (their reaction circumstances are purely too quick for the RAID card microcontroller). SSDs will artwork completely with onboard or application RAID in spite of the indisputable fact that.

yeah the other person is correct raid is deisnged for more network professional machines, but to get raid to work good the drives need to be exactly the same, eg size type make etc

izombix is correct. You'll have to go into the BIOS, and disable RAID, since you can't have RAID with only one drive.

disable the raid firmware from the bios, you can't have a raid with one drive.
