Before you started trying to install 7 did you use the Windows 7 Upgrade Adviser to make sure that this Hardware will work with 7? It's available free from M$ here

When you disabled the RAID what did you set the HDD's to and are they correctly recognized in the BIOS?

Did you follow the Instructions for Enabling EuP Mode in Setup Utility?
