Re: ASRock H87M-ITX SATA Mode: AHCI vs. RAID
No problem, you have been very informative.
So what do you think of this?
Before I did the registry edit I wanted to check if the the few hundred gigs of data I wrote to the drive was on both disk. So I checked and it was.
So I followed the registry edits. msachi was already 0, iaStorV was 3 (changed to 0), and didn't have the 3rd iastor. Rebooted changedSATA Mode to RAID. Had the option to get into RAID Configure, did that and the Volume I set up before was still there. Restarted into windows, got the message to restart again before these changes take place. All Drive showed up in Windows with all files still there.
However when I reboot the RAID status shows Rebuild. If I go into the RAID Configure it says "Volumes with the status Rebuild will be rebuilt within the Operating System".
Disk Manager Properties for the RAID Volume now show the name of the Volume.
However when I tried to run the Intel Rapid Storage Technology it seemed like it didn't launch. Tried to run it again and I got an error something like 2 instances of this cannot run at the same time. I closed it and tried to run it again and now I get the message "An unknown error occurred while running this application. If the problem persist, please retort your computer or try reinstalling the application".
After a restart the same thing happens with the Intel Rapid Storage Technology when I try to run it.
Everything seems to be OK, I reinstalled the Intel Rapid Storage Technology from the MB disk and all is well. Says my system is functioning normally and I can see the RAID SATA_Array_0000 when I run Intel Rapid Storage Technology now.
Only concern is the Rebuild status. How long should I give the OS to rebuild?
Think I'm good to go or should I start over and install the OS in RAID config?
Thanks again for all the help!!
