I understand a USB floopy will work. But to re-load the RAID driver you need a floopy. You have to create the Pr-OS RAID driver diskette from executing one of the Drivers on your Driver CD. Shortly after booting up off the CD, you have to press F6, to load the driver off the Diskette. Without the RAID driver the OS with not see the OS unless you change some BIOS settings, but then you can not set up RAID.
There is a work but not sure it worth all the hassle. The work around requires you a bit of work to get the driver on. Once you get the driver on you could then migrate to RAID 1.
