X25-V 40GB in Dell Mini10 Netbook

[idata]

What can I do so I can optimize my new drive?

I have the latest firmware installed. I am running XP Pro. I installed the Toolbox and when I try to optimize the drive, it stops because of detecting raid.

I don't think I can have a raid problem because there is only 1 drive, the X25-V.

Thanks

What drive do you have in your Mini 9? Are you running XP or Win7?

Seems like the Intel users are having trouble installing Win 7.

I tried to install Win 7 Pro on my Mini 10, but it did not work.

The Mini 9 takes a unique MiniPCIe card for its SSD. There are a handful of manufacturers of these - the one I have is from RunCore.I run Windows 7 Home Premium.

I highly recommend thehttp://mydellmini.com/ MyDellMini forums for information on Dell Minis. Describe your problem there and I'm sure someone will be able to help you. But I have read there of people having problems with the Intel SSD on the Mini 10. Perhaps one of them was you...
