About to bust apart my HDDs from RAID-0. What do I do to the discs? EDIT:Really NEED help!!

[gogeeta13]

I am about to bust apart my raid array and then go ahead and install WindowsXP pro and Mandrake 8.0. I need to know how I can get my HDDs back into normal mode and stuff. I will be taking my 2 40gigers and doing this:
40(30 winXP +10 mandrake+) and 40(storage)

Thanks, and do you think partitioning my disks liek that will work good?

Please?!!

cant you go into bios and un raid it?

 

[RGN]

You must go into the bois and un-raid it. Then you can do what ever you want to the drives, eg: fdisk

 

[gogeeta13]

ok, that is what I though.

BTW, can mandrake read fat32 partitions? NTFS?

 

[bigshooter]

Mandrake can read fat32. BTW, you do know that you will lose all your data if you break your raid arry don't you. Just making sure.

Well, I am in XP now

I changed it back to the "old" theme, man this thing feel like the MSN explorer only as an OS. I can't beleive it, I haven't had a rig that felt sluggish in an OS since my p75. I have a:
1.36Tbird
384pc136
40gig, 7200
Gf2mx

This thing is pretty bloated, we will so though, there are some cool things I like.

This is WindowsXP Pro Corparate(you dnot have to register with MS) BTW
