5-5 Setting Up a Non-Bootable RAID Array
This section assumes the following setup :
■ Boot Disk with Windows XP installed :
One hard disk HDS728080PLAT20 (80GB) is connected to the SATA channel, and
set to Master.
■ A Mirrored RAID Array Disk :
Two SATA hard disks are congured as a mirrored RAID1 array, they are :
Hitachi HDT725025VLA, (232.88GB) connected to SATA port2 of the motherboard.
Segate ST3320620AS, (298.09GB) connected to SATA port4.
■ A SATA DVD Drive :
A DVD drive connected to SATA port1.
1. Reboot your system, and go to "SATA Conguration" menu.
Enable the RAID function together with the SATA ports which have the hard disks
and DVD drive connected. Press [F10] to save the settings and reboot.
To achieve the best performance and reliability, we highly recommend you
using the hard disks with the same brand, size and model number. Though
we are using different brand of hard disks as an example here, the purpose
is only for easy understanding.
