Hi all first excuse my english, so heres my problem, when I try to use bootcamp I receive this Cannot partition an external drive but this is not external.

So to help you understand the setup I have include a jpg of disc setup on the computer i think there is a mirored disk cause if I start with the option key I have to disk storage 1 and storage 2

I just want to boot windows to ru my rc flight simulator but now its looking complicated :) or just tell me how to remove that duplication

I suspect that the problem might be Boot Camp and your RAID array not getting along.

I'm afraid, if you have your Mac OS X installation on the RAID array, that you only have 2 options:

1. Make your startup disk not part of a RAID array by moving it to a non-RAID disk then booting from that.
2. Dismantle the RAID array.

If you're using Leopard, your Leopard DVD is the Boot Camp driver CD. Make sure you download and install the Boot Camp 2.1 update as well.

how do you dismantle the raid array if you have a raid card... is it possible? I have 2 drives using raid, the other 2 drives (bays 3-4) are not in raid but still do not work with bootcamp
