Ok, I gave that a shot but I was prompted for a disc of drivers which I do not have, is there somewhere I can get the drivers or a way to get around this?How does your system create array's? On my system I can create RAID array's (mirrored or striped) in a bios utility (I press F9 on boot). If you could do that it would just be a question of boot orders as the os could remain on the 500GB. Once you reboot back into vista your RAID array should be seen and you can use computer management to create partitions ect..
sorry, i'm good with computers except when it comes to hardware. is there an easy way to find out my mobo brand without opening up the case? i'm looking into the RAID device manufacturer and will update the post when i find itDo you know the manufacturer of the RAID device? Or the make of your mobo?
If you have an nforce board then this will help you out, especially the PDF listed on the right:

Great! Well good luck with the array set-up. I'll check back later in case you got any problems..
