first off, can i do raid and not have to delete all my stuff on my single raptor? like just set up raid and keep all my stuff, not reinstall anything?and for installing the raid drivers, do i have to have the winxp disk?
 
if your Raptor is your boot drive then the drivers would have to be installed when you install windows. no, RAID 0 can't be installed on a drive that already has data on it without losing it because if you understand how a "striped pair" works you'll know that the data already on yor drive would have to have been split onto the second drive too. RAID 1 could be done without issue though i think you won't find that helpful. my suggestion is you just backup your data and then create the array, then return your data.
