| | RAID disk size difference I recently set up a RAID 10 on my system, using four 500GB HDD's. It went well, and the system sees it as a single 1TB drive, but windows Vista sees it as a single 500GB drive. When I go into the device manager and look at the RAID drive, windows sees it as a 1TB drive. Is there a way to get windows explorer to see the drive for its true size, 1TB? I am afraid it will not let me write past the 500GB's it thinks exists. |
