raid newbie

[benzimm86]

I am trying to set up raid for my first time. i am using raid 0. just wondering if there is any good documentation out there as to how to do it or if you guys have any good pointers. I am setting it up on 5 disks and putting windows 2000 server on it. Is it just done through windows setup? I dont really have any idea where to start.

On a useable computer - put in the raid driver CD in that came with the motherboard/controller card
Then select the make raid disk option and insert a floppy
Setup your server and go into the bios to build the Raid (select drives and RAID type)
Then go into windows setup (it will load drivers from floppy) and then will partition and set windows up
