I have been looking around for an answer to this but when I did an inline upgrade to windows 8 my raid 5 dropped out. I was kind of perturbed that my raid 0 running on the same controller is fine but the raid 5 shows up as 3 different drives. I tried to install the latest drivers straight from AMD but I kept getting an installer issue when trying to do so.
So I did a fresh install of windows 8, a fresh download of all the drivers, and tried it again. Still nothing.
Then I decided that if I can't get the old raid 5 back at least I should be able to create a new one. Nope! AMD RaidXpert doesn't even list Raid5 as an option. Is there something I am missing like you can only do Raid 5 on windows server 2012 and winpro doesn't have that option? Anyone try this before? It is the rig in my sig.
