Raid V on ML530

[steve vibert]

I reinstall windows 2k3 on ml530 probably G1. It was installed previoustly with with Novell OS and the disk was formatted.
Because it's old hardware i don't have original cd and I don't figure how get Internal smartarray controler work for setup raid 5 and raid 1.

I don't have custom compaq configuration partition.

I tried different version of the smartstart with no result.

Excuse my english and thank you for your help.

Download SmartStart 5.50 from here:

and after SmartStart\Windows setup, install all newest drivers.
