I also have a gigabyte ga7n400 pro mother board with on board sata and ide raid. The gigabyte web site has drivers for mdk 9 and rh 8 - 9 for the ide raid but no sata raid drivers. so i presume mandrake have updated ide raid drivers or the driver for mdk 9 works. Thought I would try MandrakeMove on it first.Fingers crossed.
