Q: How to rebuild a mirror array when one of the drives corrupts?
A: You need to delete previous array setting, duplicate the data, and then rebuild a new array setting
(See Appendix G for detailed information).
1. Press <Ctrl> <H> to setup configuration
2. Choose item 2 to Delete Array.
3. Choose item 3 to Rebuild Mirror Array.
4. Choose sub item 1 to Select Source Disk, the one with data on it.
5. Choose sub item 2 to Select Target Disk, the brand new and empty one.
6. Choose sub item 3 to Start Duplication Process.
7. After duplication process completes, press <Esc> to leave RAID BIOS.
Q: Why I see “NO ROM BASIC SYSTEM HALTED” when booting?
A: There isn’t any activated primary partition in you system. Please use FDISK or any other utilities to
create/set one.
Do & Don’t:
1. Do always use the same model drives to achieve best quality and performance. Different
firmware has different timing characteristic, thus may somewhat decrease the RAID
performance.
2. If you have two drives, do connect them on two different channels as master drive please.
3. When attach drives to the RAID card, do make sure the master/slave jumper settings are correct
please. If there is only one drive on one channel/cable, do set it as master or single drive.
4. Do always use 80 conductor cables please.
5. Don’t connect any ATAPI devices (CD-ROM, LS-120, MO, ZIP, removable HD etc.) on the
RAID card please.
6. For the best performance result, please do use the Ultra DMA 66/100 Hard Disks.
