Comment on 3TB Hard Drive on Intel Matrix/Rapid Storage by quark4

Yes, that makes sense. The 10.x driver may not work because it talks to the hardware through the OS, but the 10.x ROM *has* to work because it talks to the hardware directly.

To best of my knowledge, it has nothing to do with the OS driver. Fortunately you have the option to save a backup of current BIOS and use it to restore to previous state if necessary.

Sorry for not proofreading my previous post.Here’s what I meant to say

“Thanks for posting this helpful step-by-step guide. What OS are you using? I use Vista x64, and although I’ve downloaded the Intel Matrix/RST ROM 10.x, I’m worried that it might not work with my OS. Intel hasn’t released 10.x for my OS. In fact, if I try to install the 10.x driver (not BIOS ROM), it quits immediately with a message that my OS is not supported.”

I don’t think that’s related to the version of RAID software in your BIOS. Make sure disks are part of a RAID array at boot and check the RAID driver installation on your OS. Personally, I never put the boot record on a RAID array because if compatibility and other issues.

Hello,

Do you know if this is likely to work on a P8Q77-M (with the correct BIOS of course)? I can create a RAID1 array at boot for two new disks, but the OS sees the two disks individually as 746GB drives.. If I boot without putting them in a raid array, the OS sees them fine.

Thanks a lot for this article! I was unsure whether to buy 3Tb drives for a RAID 10 on my P7P55D with all these reports of them not showing up properly in BIOS. This clears at least some of my worries.

Awesome! This saved me so much time and energy. complete code for php


$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$ptr = implode(".",array_reverse(explode(".",$ip))).".rbloc.dayanadns.com";

$ip_address = gethostbyname($ptr);
list($d1,$d2,$d3,$d4) = explode('.',$ip_address);
$country_code = chr($d3).chr($d4);

print "Result address: ".$ip_address."\n";
print "Country code: ".$country_code."\n";
