I'm trying to configure a RAID 1 server for the first time:
==========================================================

I need to configure RAID 1 with 2 IDE drives each with
60 GB (western digital) I'm using the onboard Promise Technologie on intel mother board SE7500CW2.

Need some info:


1. Do I Need to format the drives before configuring the drive ?

2. Does the drives need to be set in any special jumper
settings ?

3. I wanted to install windows 2000 server ?


Any suggestions as what all need to installed & checked before I configure the RAID ?
