Deleting a RAID volume
Deleting a RAID volume deletes all files on that volume,
including operating system files. Before deleting a RAID
volume, make sure that all important files have been
backed up.
To delete a RAID volume:
1 Start (or restart) your computer, then press F9 during
startup. The MediaShield Utility (RAID setup) screen
opens.
2 Press the arrow keys to highlight the RAID volume you
want to delete, then press E
NTER. The Array Detail screen
opens.
3 Press D to delete the array. In this screen, you can also
press C to clear (delete all data from) the array.
