adding mirror is disabled

greetings!

i am having a problem in mirroring my two 80GB ATA drive. the drives are on each separate controller (duplexed mirroring). the primary drive contains the boot and system. now i want to mirror my boot and system volume but the "Add Mirror" is grayed out on the wizard/menu.

i had already converted the two drive into dynamic volume but it wouldn't allow to do mirroring of the drive.

additional info, the primary drive is maxtor 80GB 7200rpm and the other is seagate 80GB 7200rpm. (i don't think this adds to the problem).

please help!

thanks!

Could the Seagate volume be slightly smaller than the Maxtor?

Also check all notes:
