I'd make sure that the MB had been updated with the latest firmware as a
first step. I don't recommend this lightly as I'm generally of the
school, if it ain't broke don't fix it. But in this case it's obviously
broke. Then check any raid software for updates. Hopefully that will
fix the problem. I kind of gave up on raid arrays for non-server
installations some time ago, but then again, I'm still using WinXP to
keep compatibility with some legacy hardware on my desktop. Win7 and
later might just handle raid better.

A bit of a preamble: I have a Mirror RAID drive on my computer comprised
of two WD 1 gb Caviar drives.
Sometime after booting up, it can be a minute or two to as much as ten
minutes or more, the drive literally disappears from the directory tree
and becomes inaccessible.
The RAID is managed by the motherboard.
Any ideas of why and how to fix it are greatly appreciated. I'm not
worried about losing the data, but it's somewhat frustrating.
thanks
