First the BIOS needs to be set for IDE & SATA hds to work together,actually
SATA is usually disabled by the mfg settings,by default.RAID has no such
"format",its files/data are shared thru another hd,but the file system is
still
ntfs...You might go to run,type: diskmgmt.msc In msc,locate the hd,L.click
on it,go to actions,all,select "make active"..Also,run,type: cmd In cmd
type:
DiskPart,in DiskPart,type: list disk type: list volume type: HELP for
all cmds.
Also,if you run intel hardware,go to intel.com,download the SATA controller
software "Matrix software",it has the drivers for the boards
controller.....And
USB drivers.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to access the SATA Harddisk?.
My PC has 2 HDD, which are C and D.
C drive contains XP SP3 system file and D drive contains document file.
Recently, C drive harddisk occurs smart fail, and not able to work any more,
when I connect D harddisk using external USB case, it cannot be detected on
my notebook under window explorer, but Mass Storage Device can be seen under
safe remove tools. Under tool device, this harddisk is classified as disk 1,
it is described as "active" and "external" with no partition at all. This
harddisk is checked by manufacturer, and said it works fine, and describe
which could be format as RAID, and can only be recognized by original XP with
some SIA number, which I get no idea. At this moment, I install XP on a new
SATA HDD, after that, could anyone give me any suggestions on whether new XP
can recognize this harddisk or not? if not, does anyone have any suggestions
what I can do? the disk contains all of my document files.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Eric
