    Hello,

    I am a proud new owner of a Vaio VPC-Z11A7E with 2 SSD 64 GB RAID0.

    I have read a lot of thread here about RAID0 SSD in Vaio Z here (trim, not trem, performances loose, no hhderase support, ...)

    I want to do a clean install on Windows 7. What is the best way to format the 2 RAID0 SSD and get full performances back ?

    Does a Quick format from Windows Seven recovery CD (format c: /q in DOS console) works ?

    Does Sony Vaio recovery utilities have a may to do the same thing ?

    Buy the way, is there a topic about how to a clean install of Windows Seven of new Vaio Z with SSD.

    Thank you

    Regards

    Denony

    Thank you for the link but I can'i information about "the best way to format" in the FAQ.

    Is Windows is the best way to format ?

    I heard about destroy RAID0, run HDDErase and create RAID0 again.

    Thank you
