    Hi,

    I have a d900f with 2 hds in RAID 0.
    Yesterday I tried to connect an external 1 TB HD through the eSATA port,
    but in WIN7 nothing happened.

    Do I have to include the new HD in the existing RAID?
    I have never done that before - do I just change the settings in the BIOS?
    And is there any danger to my existing files?

    And one last related subquestion - if I choose to add a third internal HD to my configuration, will it be basically the same thing - I have to include it in the exisiting RAID?

    thanks for your help,
    brato
