ok here we go, lets see if i can make this make sense, im trying to install windows 7 on a raid 5 config (5, 1.5 teribite drives on a msi p55-gd85 mobo) and well its not going well, (new build) long story short when i try to partition the drives for the windows installer it partitions about 2 teribites and then leaves 3 unallocated... and completely non usable, when i try to partition those i get an error... it always does this, unless i boot into windows and partition from there... witch unless im mistaken is not what i want. then they are stuck as separate unallocated partitions.... and i have to re raid them...... (i am by far no expert in the whole raid business... so feel free to yell at me that im doing it wrong (also wasn't sure where to post this in)
