_matrixAll,
I started receiving the following error message on my Alienware Aurora running Windows 7 (64 bit) toolbox in the bottom right hand corner:
When I opened Intel Matrix Storage Console (v8.9.0.1023), I was greeted with one of my two hard drives in my RAID 0 configuration displaying a Status of "Error Occurred." Attached is a .pdf displaying the "System Information" details from Intel Matrix Storage Console.
I've done a lot of Google searching and cannot come up with how to solve this problem. I suspect that it might be a hard drive actively failing as I've been experiencing some random "blue screens of death" that I've never seen on this computer.
Here is my RAID controller:
My hard drives are Seagate Barracuda model ST37052538AS.
I would appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this issue as the computer is still working. I've already backed up the important data.
If I need to replace the hard drive, can I introduce a third hard drive into the RAID0 Array and then remove the bad drive located on Port 0? If this is the way to proceed, I would appreciate some guidance as the Intel Matrix Storage Console help guide is useless.
Thank you very much for the help! I truly appreciate it!
