A hard drive died in my Dell XPS 9000 and wouldn't boot afterwards. I replaced both Seagate Barracuda 7200 750 GB SATA II drives with two Western Digital 1500 HLFS VelociRaptor 150 GB SATA II drives. I went to the Dell site and downloaded the necessary drives to reinstall the Intel Matrix Storage Console V 8.9.0.1023. The BIOS has always been set to AHCI. My computer has a ICH10R I/O controller hub and the driver is listed as iaStor.sys which I believe is the AHCI driver.
Before the computer crashed the drives were configured as RAID 1 and I could see the volumes/array etc. in the Matrix Storage Console. Now when I go into the Matrix Storage Console to try and recreate a similar set up advanced mode shows my hard drives but there are no options to set anything up. The only Action is "Rescan for plug & play devices". What am I missing? Thank you for any help you can provide.
