You migh need to format the the drive, try connecting it to an old machine e.g xp and see if samsung have a partition tool, if not just use disk manager and remember vista needs the hard drive to be portioned in NTFS not FAT 32. Sometimes you might also need drivers, so check msi website for chipset drivers although they are rearly required.

they are both brand new hard drives just purchased them frmo newegg and i have tried driversmelvin2121

i am supposed to be able to do that in vista and they are not showing up, when i go into raid on the mobo i can create an array using both of them it just will not show up in vista
