Raid 0 Striping on Inspirion 530
I am attempting to setup Raid 0 Striping on my dell Inspirion 530
I have updated the Bios to version 1.0.18
I have 2 Hard disk drives installed
A western digital WD2500AAJS-75VWA 250 GB harddrive
A Hitachi HDS7225SBSUN 250 GB Hard Drive
I have the SATA mode set to RAID under the Integrated Peripherals section
When i go into the INTEL matrix storage manager option rom v7.5.0.1017 ICH9R and select create raid volume i only have the option to vreate a raid1 Mirror array.
Both disks are visible in the bios and the Intel matrix bios.
What do I need to do to allow me to create a striped array?
Thanks

Most likely you will need an add-on controller card. Nothing in the on-line manual indicates that the 530 supports RAID 0, only RAID 1.
