Hi there,
I recently purchased a new DriveStation Duo 2.0 TB HD-WL2TSU2R1. After setting up the Buffalo software on my Windows 7 64-bit PC, every time I login it attempts to run the program:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\BUFFALO\RAID Utility\startupRaid.exe" /RUN_AS_ADMIN
Obviously, this is in my Startup folder on Windows. The drive is setup as RAID1, and I have no issues accessing it from Windows. It looks like a 1 TB volume to Windows, which is what I would expect.
My only question - what is the purpose of this program startupRaid.exe? I thought the RAID was built into the drive itself. Will there be any ill effects if I remove this "startupRaide.exe" program from my Startup folder?
Thanks.
Joel
