Hey guys, quick question, when I set up RAID 0 and start installing windows, does windows format NTFS for me when I select it, or do I need a special formatting utility (can't remember what I did when I installed windows ages ago..)

My 2 drives are Seagate Barracudas 700.10

No special utility is needed, Windows sees the array as a single drive, it will format and install the same as if you used a single drive. I highly recommend you make a 10-20GB partition (this can be done with the Windows Install CD) and put the OS on that. It makes it easier to re-install the OS if needed without losing all your other data.
