click Next.
8 Click Finish to create the volume, or click Back to make changes.
9 Follow Microsoft Windows procedures for creating a partition on the new
RAID volume.
Deleting a RAID Volume
NOTE:
While this procedure deletes the RAID 1 volume, it also splits the RAID 1
volume into two non-RAID hard drives with a partition, and leaves any existing data
files intact. Deleting a RAID 1 volume, however, destroys all data on the volume.

Matrix Storage
Manager → Intel Matrix Storage Console to launch the Intel
®
Matrix
Storage Manager.
2 Right-click the Volume icon of the RAID volume you want to delete,
and select Delete Volume.
3 On the Delete RAID Volume Wizard screen, click Next.
4 Highlight the RAID volume you want to delete in the Available box,

the Selected box, and then click Next.

Matrix Storage

Mode" on page 49).

Drive to launch the Migration Wizard.
