Raid in XP!?!

**apj101** · 04-20-2005, 12:28 PM

Hi,

currently have 1 sata 120g HD, on my Abit ai7. Running XP at the mo.

I want to set up a RAID0, which the ai7 supports (obviously after i picked up another HD). But is it possible to set it up and then stripe my current HD data across the RAID array or do I have to reinstall everything from scratch?? RAID is all new on me

Please refer to Praetor's guide to RAID on this thread

RAID 101
This should help your problem

And thank you for correcting your double post
