Creating a RAID 0 array (Performance)
1. In the FastBuild™ utility main menu, press <1> to select Auto Setup.
The following screen appears.
2. Use the arrow keys to go to the field Optimize Array for and select
Performance using the space bar. The Mode field displays Stripe.
3. After making a selection, press <Ctrl+Y> to save and create a RAID 0
array.
4. Press any key to reboot the system. During the boot process, the
MBFastTrak378 BIOS checks and displays the disk array information.
5. Once the array is created, use the FDISK utility to format the array as a
single hard drive.
6. After you have formatted the arrayed drives, install an operating
system (OS). The OS will treat the RAID 0 array as a single drive unit.
