Win 7 usb raid help. RAID 2

Post by Shimo »

So I'm hoping to find a registry edit or 3rd party tool of some sort to turn 2 or more usb flash memory stick's into a raid 2 array to use for data obfuscating. The idea is that when not in use the drive sit apart, only working when all plugged in at the same time, otherwise just apearing as an unformated disk to anyone who doesn't know. My problem arises at the fact that microsoft has put in limitations preventing you from converting usb devices to a "dynamic disk". I'm succesfully done this under linux but would like to have it work under windows as well.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Same here so far. I'm thinking maybe make it look like a super floppy. Not sure that would work either. (I doubt they would let you put floppies in raid. Although....... Now I kinda want to try it just for fun. lol)

Could you imagine having 20 floppydrives hooked up? All in raid? XD SOOOOO Pointless. But ya, I really want to get this to work. I just like to be paranoid with certain data I shouldn't have, and I have a friend with some very illegal hobbies. I simply do it on linux, but he's not so adept at useing anything but windows. Also It's just fun to tinker. lol Let me know if you spot something. This is bothering me alot now. It has to be possible.
