Jumpers on SATA hd's in raid 0

I would leave them the way they were from the factory and see if the RAID controller will set them up in RAID 0.
If it won't, then set them all as master and give it a go again.
I never had to mess with the jumpers setting up a SATA RAID PC.
Unless I'm wrong, each drive should have it's own SATA port, so no need to mess with the jumpers.

The second part of this post is correct, the only jumpers on SATA drives are for spindown and spread spectrum; there is no master/slave jumper like on PATA. The controller will determine your array; no drive jumpers need to be set unless you want to experiment with spindown like certain unamed crazy Canadians... :p
