Configuring boot SSD on fresh windows Install on Aspire S3-951
I'm trying to install Windows 8.1 on an Aspire s3-951. The computer has two drives, a 20GB SSD for booting and then a larger storage drive. Before I removed Windows 7, Windows only displayed one large drive. I installed Windows 8.1 on the SSD but I can't figure out how to make Window think that they are a single drive.
Suggestions? Thanks!

the 20GB SSD wasn't for the OS, but just as cache for quick wakeup from hibernation and on windows 7 it was simply hidden from system.
in my opinion, creating a single drive is not worth since involves RAID configuration and you probably can't feel speed improvements.

Ah this explains my confusion and inability to find documentation on this subject! Thanks!
Now one more thing it seems the Intel Rapid Start Technology drivers for this computer are not updated for Windows 8.1? Are there any work arounds?
