Well, I'm very much a noob when it comes to Raid. All I know if I have 2 of the same drives (250gb WD drives) and I want to set up a raid 0.
So, I boot into the Bios and changed my configuration to Raid. Rebooted, went into the Raid controller setup. Went into ''define LD'' because it was the only thing that looked like could be changed and selected both drives for Raid 0. Said warning this will erase all data yada yada so I hit Y and then it said ''functional'' so I thought I was done. But on reboot after POST it just says scanning drives.....then says 2+0 Raid 0 497.99gb status- Funtional........but won't go any further, won't let me do anything, and if I reboot it won't let me into the bios!
So what I ended up doing was unhooking one of the drives, after that when it scanned it said error or something like that and said press control-Y to enter setup. So I did, and the only thing I could do was erase the current Raid setup because only 1 drive was present. So I did that, and now when I reboot all it says status of the raid 0 setup is OFFLINE.
So I reset the bios via the jumper, which apparently doesn't reset the RAID controller. Now I'm at a loss at what to do. Apparently this Asus raid controller setup is different because when I searched how to set up a Raid array almost nothing was the same. Please help!
