AMD RAID

Swap Arrays

Use the Swap Two Arrays option to arrange arrays in a different order.

Important

If more than one array is created, install the operating system to any of them.

However, a small amount of boot information is always written to a disk(s) in the first

array (Array 1) of the Array section, regardless on which array the operating system is

installed.
If anything happens to a disk in Array 1, the system might not be able to boot. It is

recommended that the user install the operating system on an AMD-RAID bootable

array at a redundant RAID level such as RAID1 or RAID5 and swap the array into the

first position, if it is not already Array 1.

To swap arrays:

At the “Main Menu”, use the arrow keys to highlight “Swap Two Array” and press

<Enter>.
