| | Vista only detects 1 HDD Ive used this setup for years on XP and had no troubles, but installed vista recently and cannot get vista to detect my second SATA hdd, i have and 80gb IDE which i run windows off, and 2 sata 300gig hdd's i use for storage previously both worked fine, but now only one will show up. eventually i found that if i go into the raid setup one says it is "reserved". if i turn that hdd into a JBOD it will then work in windows, but the other hdd will become reserved and not show up in windows any help would be appreciated |

| | Re: Vista only detects 1 HDD Hi, Check with the motherboard manufacturer for chipset driver updates, as this is the likely problem.
