I have a dual boot drive (ultimate x64/xp) for OS, and a separate storage drive that I want to put into raid 1 w/ an identical drive. Do I need to install drivers for this? I already have the current nforce driver with raid drivers in it installed. Do I just need to change the bios settings? I'm going to be using the onboard nvidia raid controller, and one drive already has data on it.
thanks,
df

That should work fine. Drivers are probably already in Windows and nForce RAID seems to be pretty flexible with changes.

But if it were me, I would back up the data to something else before trying the migration anyway!
