    sorry, but searching for an answer in the owner's thread and the rest of the forum is like pulling teeth on this question:

    i am going to do away with my raid 0 setup (my setup is in my sig below).
    i want to know which drive is 1st and which is 2nd (relative to the BIOS) on my machine. the m1730 drive bay and sata connector allow for 2 drives, and i need to know which drive is which so that i can correctly configure a tri-boot setup (vista/7/ubuntu)....

    it would have been easier if my drives were not identical, but they are, this is why i ask
