Task summary for RAID splitting
Note: This summary should be used only after reviewing the more
detailed procedures and warnings in this chapter.
What to do How to do it
Ensure that
your system
is fully working
and the RAID
hardware
is properly
configured.
The most important thing to verify is that the RAID channel 1 is connected to
the first hard drive (top as facing the machine) and channel 2 is connected
to the second drive (bottom). Open the lid and follow the cables or remove
one hard drive and observe which drive is marked dead by the system. If
the drive matches the graphic location on the Windows MegaRAID console,
proceed with the next step.
