    (HOT PLUG AND PLAY).

    the four hdds are connected as port0.port1.por t2.port3
    four hdds are made as one array in raid configuration

    Hopefully you're still hoping for an answer...

    Please excuse my lack of experience in RAID. I did pick up some links for you:



    Thanks for being part of our beta. Stay tuned for what comes next.


    Try them both. You'll need to read a bit.

    Good luck!

      raid 0+1 & raid 1+0 is set for miniumum 4 disk, which is probably what the bios recognised when you had the 4 disks in to begin with. raid 3, 4 & 5 are used for 3 disk minimum, check your configuration is setup for either 3 4 or 5. probably what is wrong. (raid 3 & 4 is dedicated parity) (raid 5 is distributed parity). hopefully this should get ya going!
