    Question/s involving Raid 0 and Windows 10


    Okay~


    Six years ago I bought an Alienware M17x. It came with 2x 750 GB drives configured in RAID 0. I literally didn't know this until yesterday when I yanked the hard drives out of the laptop. I built a new computer for gaming, a first for me, and put my hard drives into my new computer so I wouldn't have to buy a new copy of windows.


    Here is my question, I don't want the two drives set up in RAID 0 anymore. I have a 4TB HDD coming in by Sunday, along with a 500GB M.2


    >> I'd like to move Windows to the M.2, somehow duplicate the RAID 0 drives onto the 4TB HDD, and then reformat the 2x 750GB HDD/s so that they can be used individually. <<


    Is this possible? I really don't want to buy a new copy of windows. My laptop didn't come with any installation software for windows or anything like that. Not to mention it came with windows 7, and I upgraded when it was free to do so.

    :)

    Windows 10 Raid 0

    Before my Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit Installation, I went into my Motherboard's BIOS and set my two 2TB hard drives in Raid 0 formation. After my Windows 10 Installation, "this computer" sees my "C" drive as only 2TB. Windows 10 should recognize my Raid 0 "C"
    drive capacity as 4TB. Why is windows 10 listing my "C" drive as 2TB? Windows 10 should have spanned the Installation across my two hard drives in RAID 0 formation. Did Windows 10 install only onto one hard drive? How can I correct this Windows Installation
    to span across my two Seagate SSHD hard drives in RAID 0 formation?

    Raid 0 help

    Hi all, I've followed the IRST raid installation directions and I have created myself a Raid 0 volume. Rapid storage confirms my successful migration from a system disc to a raid 0 array. I'm also able to select it as my boot device in BIOS, but what I don't understand is why it is not listed in my Drives under my computer

    In fact, my computer still lists my original C: drive with the original capacity. I feel as if I've miss an important step here and I'm unsure how to proceed.
