Re: RAID trouble (controllers: AMD SB 600, Marvell 6121)

You could partition with that installer to (for example) two 1.5 TB partitions, which would then give the correct total size. After the OS install you should be able to see the disk and the partition in disk manager where you should be able to convert the disk to dynamic and re-partition to one par...

Re: RAID trouble (controllers: AMD SB 600, Marvell 6121)

3 TB. More precisely 3000470 MB I think.
I have managed to see the right size with a Windows 7 installer I had lying around (around 2,7 TiB), but I couldn't partition it in its entirety. And I couldn't convert it to GPT from there.

Re: RAID trouble (controllers: AMD SB 600, Marvell 6121)

Thanks for the reply, but there's a problem with that too. Firstly, the drive does not appear in the Disk Management. And secondly, if I understand MBR correctly, only partitions are limited to 2TB, but in my case the whole disk is just 2TB.

Re: RAID trouble (controllers: AMD SB 600, Marvell 6121)

In the second case (Marvell RAID), I can see a hard drive called "MARVELL Raid VD 0 SCSI Disk Device", but it's not present in "Disk Management". EDIT: I did install the drivers. EDIT2: It is visible in PartitionMagic and I can create partitions there, so I guess problem solved i...

Re: RAID trouble (controllers: AMD SB 600, Marvell 6121)

Marvell can be set as a boot device, unless the AMD controller is in RAID mode for some reason. I checked the drives by right-clicking "My computer" and clicking "Manage" and the hard drive manager in there or something like that (it shows unpartitioned drives, so I expected to s...

RAID trouble (controllers: AMD SB 600, Marvell 6121)

My motherboard (Asus M3A32-MVP Deluxe) has two SATA contollers: AMD SB 600 and Marvell 6121. I have Windows XP SP2 installed on a 750GB drive and want to put two 1500GB drives into a RAID0 field. If I connect the latter two to the Marvell connectors (set to RAID in BIOS) and the former one into an A...

Re: What monitor do you have?

I agree, it's very clear. Everything looks much sharper than it looked before. This grainy thing is very minor and perhaps it was on my older screen as well, but I didn't notice it. A bigger issue is that it throws a LG logo in your face every time you turn it on instead of displaying what your vide...

Re: NFS Hot Pursuit: Hands On at Gamespot, Pre-Order

I loved NFS when I was a kid, but I now like simulations more.
However, if it will feature stock (I'm starting to hate tuning more and more) supercars with nice (hopefully real) roads, fun gameplay and get rid of any story whatsoever, I doubt I'll be able to resist it.

Re: What monitor do you have?

I disagree. If I was buying a new monitor I'd get one with a 1920×1200 or 1920x1080 resolution. Probably the former, because I think it's more supported for now. Size is not that important imo, get a 22" - 24". If I had too much money, I'd buy a 30" one. Those are very expensive, beca...

Re: SHIFT Exotic Racing Series DLC Announced

^I completely agree. I was looking forward to AC2, but I don't want to support their DRM crap. If it ever gets cracked so it doesn't require a connection (and be an even better experience than an original copy (heh, originaly copy) ) I'll probably get a pirate version. And another company I'd add to...

Re: What time is it where you are?

No, I meant why was there a difference in minutes, but I just noticed it was 30 minutes which makes sense if you live in the Central Australian time zone. Sorry

I don't think making some time zones different by 30 or 15 minutes is really useful. It just makes it easier to confuse stuff.

Re: Favorite Car?

Yes, a Lamborghini would be unsuitable here too. But most American cars should be ok, they're not that low and their suspension is probably not too hard. But they're not very popular here, except for Fords. And sports cars are as rare as anywhere.
