I have been dicking around with my computer trying to get my raid 5 array to work. no such luck yet. I can build it, and it reports healthy, but windows refuses to see it. After reading numerous posts on problems with Nvidia nForce chipsets and raid, I think I have seen enough to not even farking bother with it. Which really sucks ass, I mean, yeah - it's only an onboard raid system, but it should work as advertised, not just suck ass. at this point I have two options: 1) install win2k8 server and set up a software raid, or 2) Buy a dedicated Sata RAID card. Given that I have already spent money getting my disks and crap (see previous post), I doubt that the finance committee would spring for more kit (finance committee = wife :) ). So, option 1 it shall be, until I can find a better solution. At least by the end of this weekend I will be on server 2k8, and have mo' storage for mo' movies and music.
