BIOS CONFIGURATION
29
This password option allows user to set or clear the RAID control-
ler’s password protection feature. Once the password has been
set, the user can only monitor and congure the RAID controller
by providing the correct password. The password is used to protect
the internal RAID controller from unauthorized entry. The controller
will only prompt for the password when entering the main menu
from the initial screen. The SATA RAID controller will automatically
return to the initial screen when it does not receive any command
in twenty seconds.
3.6.1 Quick Volume/RAID Setup
“Quick Volume/RAID Setup” is the fastest way to prepare a RAID
set and volume set. It requires only a few keystrokes to com-
plete. Although disk drives of different capacity may be used in
the RAID set, it will use the capacity of the smallest disk drive as
the capacity of all disk drives in the RAID set. The “Quick Vol-
ume/RAID Setup” option creates a RAID set with the following
properties:
1. All of the physical drives are contained in one RAID set.
2. The RAID level, capacity, and stripe size options are selected
during the conguration process.
3. When a single volume set is created, it can consume all or a
portion of the available disk capacity in this RAID set.
4. If you need to add an additional volume set, use the main
menu “Create Volume Set” function.
