Hello all and thanks in advance for the help. I'm setting up a raid 1 for the first time and I need clarification before I start. I want have window 7 on just my ssd. My Parts:
asrock z77 extreme6
i7-3770k
8g x 2 ram
samsung 840 pro 256gb ssd
2 1tb wd blue hd
1 dvd burner
1 bluray burner
1st step is to set raid in bios
2nd step is to load window onto 840 pro. Should I disconect the 2 wd 1tb drives during this process or should they be connected?
3rd step: enter the raid config. with control i and set up raid. Reconnect both 1tb drives first if I disconnected them.
If there's anything else I'm missing please let me know. Basically I wasn't sure if the 2 1tb drives should be connected during the windows install. Also both drives are brand new and havent been initialized or formated....thanks
