Using the NVIDIA MediaShield RAID Management Utility

Migrating from RAID 0 to RAID 0—Adding a Disk to a Stripe Set

The following example shows you how to expand a RAID 0 array with two disks to
include an additional disk.

1 Go to the system BIOS and make sure that the drives that you want to use are RAID

enabled.

2 Boot to Windows, launch the MediaShield application, then follow the steps outlined in

“Creating a Striped Array” on page 47

to create a two disk stripe array.

When that is done, you should see a screen shot similar to the following:

Figure 3.53 RAID Array Created

Now that a two disk stripe array has been created, you can use the MediaShield convert
feature to migrate the array from a two-disk RAID 0 into a three-disk RAID 0 array.
