You have xp pro with raid controller what happen when you install window 7 will you have to reinstall the raid drivers?
Depends on the raid controller. Windows 7 includes a awefull lot of drivers, so it probably will just work without reinstalling the drivers.
When and how do you install RAID drivers?
Installation of such drivers is common mode hardware drivers copied to a floppy disk, so that when the system starts to install press F6, then the system will load for you in the driver diskette. This driver diskette must have a root directory called Txtsetup.oem file, it will tell the installer how to install the SCSI, RAID card driver
How do you replace Raid 1 drives with larger raid 1 drives?
It is relatively easy to replace Raid one drive with a larger Raid one drive. You must turn off your system, and take out the drive, and place the larger drive in its place. Next, you turn on the system, and install the larger drive.
Which version of raid is supported by windows XP?
Any. You should have appropriate drivers for your hardware RAIDs. And during win Xp installation process when it asks to install drivers for SCSI devices (Press F6) and install drivers for your hardware RAID. Vista has native support for many RAIDs so it doesn't require specific drivers. Raid 0 is the correct answer and that includes simple, spanned and striped
If you are installing windows on a hard drive that is managed by a raid storage controller card when and how do you install the raid drivers?
You copy the RAID or Non RAID drivers file from the cards driver CD to the disk Read the documentation to find out which folder on the CD contains these files The card drivers must be installed during the Windows installation. you are given an opportunity at the beginning of the Windows installation to provide the drivers on floppy disk or a USB device.

The do a Clean install after you back up your data. RAID controllers can cause upgrade issues because of potential data loss inherent in the technology so a Clean install is your safest bet. Enjoy Win7, it`s fast, stable and a real winner!
How do you install hardware raid 0 in a computer?
Hardware RAID 0 is basically a controller card that controls the RAID functions such as a SCSI RAID config. Some motherboards come with RAID functionality built in the motherboard. If you have a RAID adapter in your computer and want a RAID 0 configuration with no data protection. You must download software from the RAID adapter manufacture, usually a bootable CD and run the configuration program at boot up using the CD. Keep in mind that this procedure will destroy any data on the drives. Listed below is a list of abbreviated possible configuration types. Raid 0 - No data protection Raid 1 - One drive mirrored to another Raid 5 - Multiple drives combined together with data protection. Make sure you backup your data first...
How do you install two hard drives with only one operating system?
You could set them up as a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Drives). So data would be distributed between the two drives, and they would behave as though they were a single drive. This increases the speed of reading and writing to the drives, and increases file integrity.First you'd want to have a diskette or CD/DVD with the RAID driver and backup your files. You might even want to try installing a RAID driver at this point. Then you'd make the necessary changes in CMOS to allow RAID to work. Then when you get a prompt to hit F10 or whatever to get into the RAID setup, that is where you can migrate your installation to use RAID. If you are only after safety and only have 2 total drives, RAID 1 is recommended. If you have any trouble, you might have to do a repair install of Windows.Or, you can set up a RAID system from scratch. Just set up the CMOS to use RAID and go into the RAID management utility when you see the prompt during boot for that. Then assign the 2 drives to work as one in there. Then you'd install Windows (or whatever) and use the F6 option when prompted by Windows. That is when you'd insert your RAID driver diskette/CD. Then Windows continues installing, using your RAID driver to set it up as a RAID installation.Or, you can just add another hard drive and prepare it with whatever drive preparation utilities you use, whether the stuff from your drive manufacturer and WIndows, or a partition management utility set. Then you can use this second physical hard drive for more storage.
