How to install RAID 0?

I have one WD SE16 250Gb already and I am going to use Darik's Boot and Nuke to erase the contents of it. I am ordering another one with the same model number, and want to set up a RAID 0 array for my next PC. How do I do so? It will be Vista x64 Home Prem on a Gigabyte P35-DS3R.





Thanks

vista may already have your raid drivers. if not then you will need to load the drivers during installation. when you boot the computer there should be a screen where you hit something like f10 to enter raid. if not then you need to enable raid in cmos setup. select the proper raid setup and drives.

By CMOS, you mean BIOS, right?



I want multiple ppl to comment this, plz.





Thanks

the blue screen

if vista doesnt have the drivers then you will need to invest in a floppy drive or do the thumb driver work around.


here's the driver:

vista probably will not have the raid drivers unless it is generic ones since this board came out after vista.

What's the difference?

same driver, different locations.

No, one goes in when Vista is installed, and the one you suggested, I don't even know. I would assume when Vista is being installed, that would make a lot of friggin sense to install it after Vista is installed Still what is the difference, and what do you mean different locations?

Why is the one I found .23Mb and your is 13-something Mb?

Thanks

the link you gave me shows four download locations.

Same thing here from your's.....

i know ill probably sound dumb by saying this, but what exactly does raid do? boost speed/responsiveness?
