I am new to DrivePool and I love it so far however I do have one question. I was wanting to use the SSD Optimizer to improve write speed but I don't have a spare SSD and I don't want to use my OS drive SSD so I decided to take 2 of the WD Black drives and put them in Raid 0 and use that as my Cache drive. My first choice/attempt was to use the motherboard raid controller to set it up but when I enabled raid in the bios windows would bsod during boot. Instead of spending the time to dig through dump files and try to resolve that issue I just disabled raid in the bios so it would boot with out issues and use the Windows raid feature. After setting up the raid in windows I opened DrivePool to add the newly formed raid drive and doesn't show up as a drive. Is it possible to use a Windows raid in DrivePool or do I need to figure out my BSOD problem when the Motherboard Raid is enabled? I noticed when I created the raid in windows it changes the disk from a basic disk to a dynamic disk. Does that have something to do with it?
