Plan on flashin my Benq for the first time tomorrow with iPrep due to having vista 64. I will be using onboard SATA from my Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe. I currently have all for SATA's in use. 3 hard drives and a DVDr. Raid is setup, so im wondering if ill be able to unplug them all, and it will be fine due to being in DOS for iPrep. Thanks in advance guys.
Re: Do I have to disable raid?

yeah when you shutdown your comp just before you boot into iprep, i would advise that you take out all hdd and dvd drives, then connect your 360 drive and then boot up, then when you have flashed your drive just connect the the hdd and dvds back up

I would be careful when creating the USB Drive for IPrep. You need to make sure that you select the correct drive so you don't format anything that shouldn't be formatted. Then before you boot to the USB Drive, I would disconnect the other sata items, just to be safe.
Take your time. Go slow and if you have another pc or laptop, have the video tutorial going at the same time and follow along pausing when you need to. Make sure that you back the Original FW up to several places. If you have any more questions just post them up. GOOD LUCK!!!!
