Raid Question
I have a "Unique Power User" with an existing install of Windows XP Pro on an Intel platform.
He wants to clone his existing OS drive to an 80GB drive, (IDE) and then mirror that with a Promise Fastrack T2000 pci card.
My question is this. Do I just boot to the Windows CD, and hit F6 to install the RAID driver? Will XP Pro do this without forcing a Repair Install? I know that if I do this improperly, the XP installation will be shot.
FYI, all data is backed up to an external drive, but it would take a long time to get all his programs re-installed, so we are trying to avoid a reload if possible. This is my oldest and most lucrative customer, but I always treat him fairly.
Thanks in advance.
If only you knew what's inside of me now,
You wouldn't want to know me, somehow.
