Subject: x99 Extreme4 Raid 0 Question, Please Help
Posted: 29 Apr 2016 at 4:17pm
I stayed up all night and I think finally I am very close but I am stuck in the final Phase of understanding this:To better explain myself after completing the Intel's Rapid Storage Raid Array for those 2 drives you can see the new drive in Disk Management and elsewhere combine the size of 2 SSDs, however I thought it would be stripping and would only have Max size of one of the drives? You can see what I mean in the following picture I am attaching, the 2 SSDs that were combined is identical with the "MUSH I" drive so those 2 combined drives volume size should have been about the same if they are really RAID 0 now? about 931GB I thought Raid 0 turned them into one with faster capabilities? however both in Intel utility and Disk Management the size is 1.81TB
I am confused Everything went perfectly fine on Intel Rapid Storage Tech Utility and as you can see it is setup correctly as stated there TYPE RAID 0 on that side.
Am I missing something, Did I make a mistake allocating in Disk Management?
the image file I took screen shot is here:
