Serial ATA, Sil Raid and PCmark

I need help. I have 2 Serial ATA Maxtor 120gb hard drives On Raid (silicon image) connected to my A7N8X. And every time I run PCmark02 it skips the HDD tests. I have looked like the irate onion site says to do and I cant find the file they mention. Does anyone know a fix?

Agreed... I don't see any good reason to use a raid system for gamimg... but whatever, I could be wrong about that.

System Specs

Using raid.... (depending on what if your splitting it) is excellent for gaming.... load times are up there along with page files.... The transfers are excellent... And he can't just disconnect one hardrive without the other going nutz...

yeah, the HDs in raid 0 depend on each other they write the data like this

HD1 (data1) (data5)

HD2 (data2) (data6)

HD3 (data3) (data7)

HD4 (data4) (data8)

Imagine if you only had the 1st drive. You would only have data segments 1 and 5.
