Ok, I have a MoBo that has a software RAID controller for
S-ATA. I want to set up a RAID 0 array for WinXP using 2
Western Digital 36 gig Raptors.

My question is, to set them up, do they both need to be
jumpered as a Master drive? Or do you just set one of the
drives as master?

I wouldn't think you could jumper one as master and one
as slave.

There are no master/slave jumpers on SATA drives.
