    This has probally been asked before and I'll probally get flamed for asking this but I couldnt find the answer so...
    Can you raid the drives in the g73jh? It comes with two 500gb drives so It would make sense to be able to do that right? If it makes a difference I would like to stripe them.(can't remember which number that is though)

    All the models that come with HM55 chipset can not do RAID, as this chipset has no hardware support for it.
    The PM55 chipset has a hardware support for RAID but there also it's a choice of ASUS wether or not to support it in the bios. :(
