"This issue is caused by missing MBR. This is by design, because MBR resides outside partition area on cyllinder 0. You can easily restore it onto the second drive by booting Windows installation CD and choosing to repair; or by using any popular third-party computer recovery CD."
If this matches your issue, see possible resolution here: http://www.asktheadmin.com/2009/07/fun-with-software-raid-on-windows-server-2008.html
