Before getting started
 Back up your computer's data to external media. Creating, altering, or configuring for RAID deletes all data from
affected hard disk drives.
 Create a VAIO Recovery Media Kit, so that you can configure the RAID volumes, and perform a hard disk drive
recovery.
For more information about creating recovery media using the VAIO Recovery Wizard utility program, see the
section
About the VAIO Recovery Media Kit .
 Verify the status of the existing hard disk drive(s) before creating or changing the RAID volume. Use the Intel ®
Storage Utility software program to check drive. See the section, About the Intel Storage Utility program.
The VAIO Recovery Wizard utility program can configure the first two hard disk drives into a RAID-0 (striped) or RAID-1
(mirrored) volume. (Hard disk drives are installed in port-0 and port-1). Use the Intel ® Application Accelerator (IAA) feature
of the Intel Storage Utility software program, to configure any additional drives. See the section, About the Intel Storage
Utility program.
