1. Load the RXT media pack into the RXT150.

drives should report as Optimal (green), as shown in Figure 3-23.

The RXT media pack automatically rebuilds itself when placed back into the
RXT150. Note that the rebuild process can be lengthy, depending on the amount
of data. During the rebuild, read/write operations will be slower than normal.

Note: A RAID 0 RXT media pack requires reformatting; see below.
