Using the "Define a New Array" Window
If necessary, press the tab key to move from field to field until the appropriate field is highlighted.
Selecting the RAID Mode
By default, this is set to Mirroring. To change to a different RAID mode, press the down arrow key until
the mode that you want appears in the RAID Mode box - either Mirroring, Striping, or Spanning.
Selecting the Striping Block Size
Striping block size is given in kilobytes, and affects how data is arranged on the disk. It is recom-
mended to leave this value at the default Optimal, which is 32KB, but the values can be between 4 KB
and 128 KB.
Assigning the Disks
The disks that you enabled from the RAID Config BIOS setup page appear in the Free Disks block.
These are the drives that are available for use as RAID array disks. To designate a free disk to be used
as a RAID array disk,
1. Tab to the Free Disks section. The first disk in the list is selected.
2. Move it from the Free Disks block to the Array Disks block by pressing the rightarrow key (J). The
first disk in the list is moved, and the next disk in the list is selected and ready to be moved.
3. Continue pressing the right-arrow key (J) until all the disks that you want to use as RAID array disks
appear in the Array Disks block.
Completing the RAID BIOS Setup
After assigning your RAID array disks, press F7. The Clear disk data prompt appears.
