Default Setting up raid

Since I'm no longer folding for now, I will only be using the one PC so I decided to make it as fast as possible. As you may have seen from another thread, I have got up to 5.9s in all of the Vista experience score categories except hard drive. My intention was to get two Raptors running in Raid0 but have decided that this is going to be too pricey for the minuscule gain I will get.

The new plan is to take the 320Gb Seagate Barracuda (7200.10) from the E6600 rig which I won't be using for now and getting another one the same (arriving tomorrow - along with my new sound card) and running them in Raid0.

I want to make sure I get this right first time as I don't want to be fannying about for days trying to get it to work.

From what I can gather from a bit of Googling, what I have to do is:
Set the raid options as required in the BIOS and install the Raid drivers (downloaded from Asus and put onto USB flash) when prompted during the Vista install.

Is it really as simple as that or am I missing something obvious?
