Just got my new HD (IBM Deskstar 61GB) and am gathering information on how to install. This is my first install of a hard drive and it didn't come with manual. But UltraTek card, IBM website, and accelerate yor mac website has provided me with enough pictures that I think I can handle this. I have installed easy things like PCI cards and RAM and I'm not shy about poking around inside my computer. Now my question: Everyone on this listserv has said to use Apple Drive Set-up to format new drives. Should I ignore the software that came with the UltraTek ATA card? What do you do with RAID? I know this probably sounds dumb to most of you, but I really don't know. Do I format it with the Apple Drive Set-Up and then do further formatting with RAID? Thanks for help.
