Setting Up Your RAID Configuration

Assigning the Disks

The disks that you enabled from the RAID Config BIOS setup page appear in the Free
Disks block. These are the drives that are available for use as RAID array disks.

To designate a free disk to be used as a RAID array disk,

1

Tab to the Free Disks section.
The first disk in the list is selected

2

Move it from the Free Disks block to the Array Disks block by pressing the right-

arrow key (Æ).
The first disk in the list is moved, and the next disk in the list is selected and ready to
be moved.

3

Continue pressing the right-arrow key (Æ) until all the disks that you want to use as

RAID array disks appear in the Array Disks block.

Figure 2.15

illustrates the Define a New Array screen after two disks have been

assigned as RAID1 array disks.
