My P5LD2 Deluxe motherboard manual is not clear on this issue, and I need help.

Can I configure the following on the Asus P5LD2 Deluxe:

One WD 250GB SATA ll HDD as non-RAID for boot drive.

Two WD 250GB SATA ll HDDs set up as RAID 0 for data drive?

If so:

- what mobo connections are used for the 3 HDDs?
- do I need to install any drivers?
- what sequence would this installation require?

Thanks.
 
yes u can

'n of course mobo sata connectors

why would u wanna use non raid 4 boot drive? anyway

yes u need that driver disk or download latest drivers and do driver didk (intel ich7)

plug those hdd's (sata1 sata2 sata3) inplace and then go bios setup: ide configuration/

configure sata as [raid]

onboard serial ata boot rom [enable]


then choose boot disk on boot menu

save & exit

Now boot up and press CRTL+I

on intel storage manager:

choose create raid volume
choose raid level (guess striped 0?)
then select disks

blah blah blah

finally choose create volume and press enter

exit storage manager

now if u want to setup windoze on that just created raid disk u have to press f6 on windoze setp

hope this helps
