So far thats my DATA area where i be installing my old games ;D, also its perfect for temp files for firefox and IE really fast and doesnt wear down CF.
 
you need to use the microdrive driver and replace your SD card driver.

then windows will think its a real hard disk then you create a software raid using windows xp in disk management. ;D


so far so good didnt see any issues, im wondering if the cardreaders are plugged into the board via usb or something else oo. cus my usb bandwitdth doesnt go down when i transfer files from say a USB drive.
 
windows xp pro has a built in software raid but you have to convert your disks into dynamic if you want them raided.
 
This works for me, but the RAID array is disabled after a reboot. I can go into Disk Management and reactivate the array after the reboot.

Does anyone know how to prevent the array from being deactivated when rebooting?
 
Hey guys, Windows 7 can solve this issue. I just install the 6801 build on my AOA110 and form 2x 16GB SDHC class 6 to a RAID 0 32GB drive. After reboot, it still exist. :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
I use a simple .bat to reactivate the volume (first disk & then volume). Then run it as a service. Just something like this:

in .bat
.......................................
diskpart /s c:\diskpart.txt

in c:\diskpart.txt
......................................
select disk 1
online
select disk 2
online
select volume 0
online
exit

The card readers are not connected to USB. They're connected to PCI express connection. I believe it's PCI express 1x. The read/write bandwidth of the card readers are independant to the usb controllers.
