Help setting up RAID 1 on Win2k3

This will be my first time doing anything with raid. The OS will most likely be Windows 2003, the hardware is Gigabyte 780G board and two WD 640GB Green drives.

The trick is I don't have easy access to a floppy drive to load the RAID drivers at the moment. Is there a way to do this without a floppy or am I going to have to round one up?
 
You are either going to have to hook up a floppy drive or integrate the RAID drivers into a slipstreamed Server 2003 Install CD. The floppy drive is the most straightforward way.

Some will, some won't. You need to research this before buying one. It depends on whether Windows has the drivers for that particular USB floppy drive. Take a look at the reviews on Newegg.com and see which ones are working for people.
