RAID 1 after first drive Installation
with a mirror drive you can "usually" instal the second drive, correctly
amend any bios settings then reboot & enter the raid config utility to build the array (this only applies to a mirror array) NB I've not checked your mobo manual but on some, certain sata connectors have to be used, I assume also that your raid controler is by default supported in Vista & you dont have to use the F6 option to install third party (raid controler) drivers in either a clean or repair instalation.
