Z87H3-A2X EXTREME (GOLDEN) USER MANUAL

Chapter 7

Resetting disks to Non-RAID

An HDD that has been previously configured as part of another RAID set

in another platform is called a broken RAID HDD. When you install a
broken RAID HDD, you cannot select this disk when configuring a RAID set
through the Intel

®

Rapid Storage Technology option. If you still want to

use this broken RAID HDD as part of the RAID set configured through the
Intel

®

Rapid Storage Technology, you may do so by resetting the disk to

Non-RAID. You will, however, lose all data and previous RAID
configurations.

To reset disks to Non-RAID:

1.

In the main Intel

®

Rapid Storage Technology RAID BIOS menu, highlight Reset

Disks to Non-RAID using the up/down arrow key then press <Enter>.

2.

Use the space bar to select the HDD to reset to Non-RAID.

3.

A dialogue box appears to confirm the action. Press <Y> to confirm;

otherwise, press <N>.

Pressing <Y> deletes all the data in the HDDs.

When you have finished, highlight Exit using the up/down arrow key then press
<Enter> to exit the Intel

®

Rapid Storage Technology RAID BIOS utility.

A dialogue box appears to confirm the action. Press <Y> to confirm; otherwise, press
<N> to return to the Intel

®

Rapid Storage Technology RAID BIOS menu.
