I just bought a hex core 3930K system and was not satisfied with the disk space left over after the original Windows 7 Pro installation on a single SSD.

So I bought a second identical 256 GB SSD (from The Egg) and thought I could just go ahead and set it up as a JBOD system. I went into the BIOS & enabled RAID for starters.

And now - I'm stumped.

I have the ASRock Extreme6 motherboard

For starters, is this a bad idea ? I want to retain TRIM functionality. I'm used to having a larger desktop, with 200+ GB of files on it, and about 50 GB for applications (3D CAD, Animation, Adobe Master Suite). Windows 7 eats up about 60 GB for whatever purpose, just the OS.

Once I saw that I would be limited with the first SSD drive, I figured I could run the 2 drives in drive-spanning configuration.

That's where I could use a step-by-step explanation of the installation procedure.

Hopefully I'm not the first to want to try this, and other members could benefit.

If I had to do it again, I would get the 512 GB SSD. But now that I have the 2x 256 drives, how do I set up Windows 7 ?

Thanks !
