RAID 1 support in Win 10

[john92024]

How do I check for a bad drive in RAID 1 in Win10? In Win 7 I had a RAID icon that I could see the health etc. of each drive. I can't find any way to see my drives in Win10.

Is your raid 1 thru a dedicated controller card, thru the Chipset/motherbd Controller, or Software Raid from Win10 pro ?

I believe it is through the motherboard. I don't see a card and the drives are wired directly to the board. And I have had the RAID 1 for several years (Win 7) and prior to Win 10 there was an icon in the task bar that would let me look at my RAID drives, settings etc. whenever I wanted to. Not there anymore and when I try to look at drives through Windows it shows a single Drive C:.

At this point, we need to know your which model# motherbd you have and which sata ports those drives are connected too. Some motherbds have multiple sata controllers onboard.

Well, I know I have a Gigabyte GA-PH67A-UD3-B3 , but I don't know how to tell what the ports are. I can't see anything that tells me that info.

No need, you only have Ports from the intel chipset.
Downloading and installing Intel RST for your OS should bring back the utility you are used to.

Great! Thank you so much.
