I have a HP proliant Ml115 G5. Supposedly OK for 2008. I am configuring RAID 1 and have setup the BIOS to do this, that seems OK. BUT, I need the software to run this type of RAID control (not a separate board). I loaded the Windows disc and got to the part where it showed just one drive (I don't know why but I assume the RAID configured so far only presents one drive to the world and the software (when installed) handles the pair?) and asks for a driver. This I have downloaded as a .exe file from the HP site.
The OS does not recognise the file on an ordinary USB drive so apparently (according to HP support) I have to create a floppy drive and put the downloaded files there before Windows will recognise them. That means I think I have to buy a USB floppy unit. Is that right?
Does anyone know the exact procedure for this - I know its not just copy the file to the floppy but there is an install procedure?
Thanks for your time.
