I just got 2 500gb hdd's that I want to use for a raid 0 array and im using an MSI 970A-G46 Motherboard with raid support. I put both of the drives in raid 0 with the bios and boot the os from my kingston ssd 60gb. How come when I boot up my system on my other storage drive, it crashes? Do I have to get drivers.

I use a boot HDD and two RAID 0 HDDs. Set the controller to RAID and assign the two 500gb hard drives for striping. Can you boot to just the SSD without the hard drives being used?

Fair enough, I like to experiment too, the drivers should fix this.

 

There are no drivers for hard drives. There are utilities, but none that are vital.

 

@OP, do you have an OS installed on the other drives? Dumb question, but a good one to start out on.
