If you install Vista 64 where Vista 32 once lived, be very careful. Unfortunately, my backup software has that reversed, sees the RAID as drive and the imaging drive as drive C. Device manager at least knows that the RAID controller is on logical C: and that drive is an additional drive (which I am using for imaging). If you can imagine, Windows had managed to confuse itself about the paths to drives and volumes, thinks my C: drive contains (by default) volume and the drive contains (again by default) volume C.
