I am trying to install windows 8 on laptop with Raid 0 (stripe) as second system and have following error:
Windows can't be installed on drive 0 partition 6 (show details)
Details says: Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can only be installed to GPT disks.
I am able to format partition but it doesn't help. Google says EFI and GPT is related to itanium based processors, which is not my case.
Any help would be appreciated.
If you have a UEFI BIOS then you should be using GPT paritions. – Ramhound – 2012-10-26T19:59:13.007
I'd like to point out that RAID 0 performance increases have been proven to be mostly negligible. I don't want to turn this into a debate about RAID 0, but you might want to look up some benchmarks and consider whether doubling your risk is worth the measured performance increases. If you're just playing around it obviously makes no difference, but I wouldn't store family photos on those drives. – Tanner Faulkner – 2012-10-26T20:12:20.237
