I am thinking about setting up a RAID 0 set. My motherboard is a Gigabyte
GA-8INXP with a P4 2.53GHz, overclocked to 2.95GHz, with on-board Sil3112A
SATA controller.
I plan to install two Western Digital Raptors, 74GB, 10,000 RPM, 4.5ms seek
time etc.
Question is this...i know i have to enable the RAID feature in the BIOS and
setup the RAID using the Sil3112A RAID BIOS feature.
But after all this is done, do i just normally proceed with installing the
operating system?, Windows XP Professional SP1 i am using.
From a fresh install you can set partitions and select the partion to
install the OS, but when Windows installs what will be displayed in Disc
Management?...a single drive?
Will i have just 74GB displayed or 148GB?, taking into consideation
partitions etc.
