Hello,
I am about to put together a new build and need some assistance setting up RAID. Going to be using Win8.
I have a total of 4 drives and 1 optical drive going into my build.
1x SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series 256GB - OS/important application drive
2x WD Black 640GB - Data Drive
1x WD Black 1TB - Backup Drive
I was planning on plugging the following drives into each port
SATA0 - Main SSD
SATA1 - 1TB Backup drive
SATA2 - 640gb drive (first raid drive)
SATA3 - 640gb drive (second raid drive)
SATA4 - Optical drive
I was wondering if where I was going to plug in everything looked good?
I was also not sure on how exactly to set up raid with my single drives? I know I have to go into the BIOS and change it to RAID for the correct SATA ports, but what drivers do I need to install as well? Not sure which ones I need to download
GIGABYTE - Motherboard - Socket 1150 - GA-Z87X-UD4H (rev. 1.0)
Thanks ahead of time for your help and let me know if you need any more information!
