| Adaptec 1430 RAID I have 4 disks, 2 in a raid off the adaptec controller, 1 JBOD simple volume off the adaptec controller and 1 off the motherboard boot disk (c:), Vista went on smoothly and found my raid set (D:) no problem. BUT it insists on a driver for the JBOD disk. Storage manger (adaptecs) see all the disks fine, but Disk manager (windows) will not see the disk. Device manager sees the disk as "Other devices". All firmware on all devices is current along with drivers. Surley a disk added to system doesnt need drivers esp. if its all internal ?! With RAID disks off a controller, the disks are all controlled by the hardware, which presents the logical devices to the operating system. If it can see one RAID set why not the other? I've tried all combinations of ports to no avail. And if I move this disk to be connected the motherboard like the boot disk, then I have exactly the same problem. Device manager sees it as Other deivces. I tried low level format, tradional format, Zero format from the manufactures util. All Diags pass fine. So is this a Vista 64 problem, an Adaptec driver / firmware issue, or a MSI K9n Platinum issue?????? Can anyone help on this matter? |
