    Hi all,

    In Vista can anybody tell me how I can convert an external HD Caddy which has two SATA HD in it into one large volume?

    Many thanks

    as far as I know you have to build a RAID0 to have two disks appear as one.

    :agree: although, running a RAID0 can be not a good idea

    yeah, well, RAID0 might not be the best solution (could make more problems than it solves), but it does what's stated in the question/request...
