Hi
On the 8knxp mobo, is there a SATA regular connectors? I mean "regular" as in connecting SATA harddrives on the mobo without using a raid controller such as Intel's ICH5R , Gigaraid, and Sil.
One of my harddrive just suffered a S.M.A.R.T event. I contacted Maxtor and they recommended that I connect the drive directly to the motherboard without using any raid controllers. Then run the powermax utility.
With my present configuration, 2 Sata maxtor 160gb HDDs are in raid O array controlled by Intel's ICH5R raid controller. The powermax utility does not recognize drives that go through a raid controller. Any suggestion would be appreciated, thank you.
