I think you'd be better off if you: - turn off all RAID options in BIOS and set the Sil3114 to be ATA-only (or the equivalent) - in fact, I would just plug your drives into the normal IDE controller(s) on the motherboard and ignore the Sil controller (unless you need the extra connectors) - use Linux Software RAID (easy to create RAID volumes during SUSE partition setup in Yast) Doesn't it seem like a waste to have a "fancy" RAID-enabled motherboard and then not use the RAID features? Yes, but these features are not much more than marketing hype. As I understand it, the Linux software RAID will probably be faster as well! On Friday 13 May 2005 10:24 am, zio budda wrote:
Hi, I have a Gygabite MotherBoard with Sil3114 Raid Chipset and 2 HD. Into the bios of Sil 3114 I have set one Raid0 so when I boot the PC (before the boot manager menu) I see the text: "Sil0 138GB". Ok, it is correct. Now I want to install Suse 9.3 Pro, I boot from DVD and I see 2 HDx73GB and not HD 1x138GB. Why ? This is correct ?
Tnx in advance for all and sorry for my bad english.
