    New G5 Shuttle ---how to establish RAID with 2 250 hard drives?

    Hi,

    My new G5 arrived yesterday and I'm trying to start right.... by installing Raid functionality to protect the data. I have 2 250 drives for that purpose. The shuttle has no floppy drive and yet there is a floppy with RAID Drive 32Bit label on it. Please don't tell me I should have ordered a floppy drive?

    Thanks !

    Greg

    You can just plug the floppy in to install the driver, it doesnt have to be mounted in the case to work.
