Thought it would be a no brainer as I already have 1 SATA drive installed and several IDE drives also.Here are the two issues where I could use some help:1. I want to run the SATA disks as seperate drives, not an Array RAID 0 or an Array RAID 1, or RAID 0+1, but I see no selection to run them independantly.2. And probably even more important, first I can't see the drive at all in order to format or partition it (maybe that's why an option is not available for question 1 yet?).I have it connected in one of the two SATA connections found on my ASUS board. And the drivers for the RAID/SATA must be installed correctly since I am already using one SATA?I tried looking for the drive using MS Windows Aministrtative Tools in the Computer management section, no luck. I also tried using Partician Magic to see the drive... again no luck?Any help on this would be grateful.

Well, silly me. Found the answer. On my Asus P4P800-e Deluxe motherboard there are actually 4 SATA connections: 2 for a RAID Array and 2 for typical SATA drives. Guess who had it plugged in the wrong socket! ;) (Well, it was blocked by some cables so I didn't se it).Ah... if only all FS issues could be solved so easily.
