That's where my initial confusion stems from. I fully expected to see some type of RAID Configuration utility option during boot, but I don't recall any such option. I believe the fast boot option is enabled in the BIOS. Is it possible this would prevent the RAID Config option from being displayed during boot, or does that simply skip memory tests, etc.? This is a brand new machine I haven't had a chance to even dig into (one of the those Best Buy deals that were too good to pass up). Unfortunately, my Fiance did have the opportunity to transfer all of our photos, data, etc. prior to this debacle.
