How do I set up software Raid 0

[Goony]

I am looking for some step by step directions or a link to some.

I cant seem to figure this one out on my own and cant find a link
anywhere.

I have a 40G Disk 0 - this will house XP and apps
I have a 160G Disk1 - want to raid0 with Disk2
I have a 100G Disk2 - want to raid0 with Disk1

I have seen settings for basic partition, extended partition etc but I
cant seem to find the right combination that will allow me to stripe
the set.

I am looking for a like of step by step direction so I can get this
take care of.

Dont know if this stuff matters but here it is anyway
Disk0,1 are on one IDE controller
CDRW and Disk2 are on the other IDE controller
Running WinXP professional with latest patches
1.8GhZ Intel processor, 512M ram
Compaq EVO 510CMT

TIA

Hi,
Raid 0 is striped config. Mismatched drive is not a good idea.
You are losing 60GB right there. General rule is pairing identical
drive on Raid. No manual to read?

Read up on Dynamic Disks. Beware, it's a one way street, and Dynamic
Disks are hard to fix.
