I am running 3 Hd's. #1 for the OS #2/#3 running raid 0 with just files on
it. Recently i formatted and reinstalled windows on #1 however my raid HD
will not appear as a drive anymore. Under disk maangement it recognizes that
the dirve is there, however, it wants me to format the drives/new partition
to allocate it a letter. I cannot loose the data currenly on the raid 0.
HELP!!!
 
Since you reinstalled windows, did you press F6 when prompted at the beginning to
install 3rd party drivers such as Raid or SCSI?

I did not do that. However, i have done this before and with the
installation of the driver and utility i have been able to see the HD
before. Currently i can see that the drive is recognized in disk
management however before i can allocate it a drive letter i must
parittion it/format it. I cant do this as all my infor mation will be
lost!
