Using the NVIDIA MediaShield RAID Management Utility

Migrating from RAID 1 to RAID 0

The following example shows you how to convert from a RAID 1 array with two disks to
a RAID 0 array with two disks.

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

enabled.

2 Boot to Windows and launch the MediaShield application then follow the steps

outlined in

“Creating a Mirrored Array” on page 51

to create a two-disk mirror array.

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

Figure 3.75 RAID Array Created

Now that a two disk mirrored array has been created, you can use the MediaShield
convert feature to migrate the array from a two-disk RAID 1 into a two-disk RAID 0
array.
