How can I raid 0 two hard drives in a windows 2008 r2 dedicated server? (sysrcd)

I am unable to do this using the disk management tool. My hosting provider said " If you need raid on this service you can use sysrcd to edit the partitioning." How can I go about using sysrcd to get my hard drives RAID 0? I've been looking for documentation on google to no avail .

Which issue did you got while using Disk Management? You will need to shrink the Windows partition, create RAID 1 with that partition then you will be able to setup RAID 0 for the remaining space.

I shrunk Disk 0. When I go format the unallocated space, the only option I get is to create a simple volume...

You should delete Disk 1 first -> create RAID-1 for the Windows partition from Disk 0 then you will be able to do RAID 0 for the remaining space.
