hi all, can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong before I go nuts ?
I have just acquired (from ebay) an Adaptec 2100s raid hba, 3*18 GB drives
and u160 cable
I managed to set up a raid 5 array in the HBA BIOS, started win2k set-up,
did the usual F6 thing and inserted driver disk
drive formatted fine, although set-up saw it as one 34GB (approx.) drive, is
that right ?
windows installed ok, but when I looked in disk management, it said I had 1
BASIC 34GB drive, no mention of a RAID5 set-up
so can someone please tell me where I went wrong
oh, and no sarcastic quips please, I'm new to raid, as you can probably tell
TIA Mick
Wrong place for non-sarcastic replies...
Nothing went wrong, it worked exactly as it should have--WIndows sees
hardware raid as a single drive, the underlying hardware is not
exposed to the OS. s
