More than likely, the SATA RAID is controlled by your SATA controller and
it's boot ROM. You should see a boot screen and instructions on how to enter
the the setup such as CTL+C or CTL+A, depending on the manufacturor. Once in
the setup program follow the on screen instructions, but be aware ... this
is not for the feint of heart, and you will loose all data on both drives so
be sure to backup and then restore. The caveate here is that the nerd
platoon that "repaired" the system may have disabled the boot ROM in the
BIOS.
