FastTrak TX4650, TX2650 User Manual
126
What system BIOS setup settings do I use for the drives on the FastTrak?
None. The drives on the FastTrak TX Series are supported by the FastTrak
BIOS and/or OS drivers, not by your system BIOS.
How do I partition and format my FastTrak logical drive?
You can partition and format your logical drive using any file system you
want. See “Appendix A: Partition and Format” on page 137.
Critical logical drive status error reported during boot
If a critical status error message appears on the FastTrak BIOS startup
screen for a RAID 1, 5 or 10 logical drive, a physical drive has failed or is not
responding. See “Responding to a Critical or Offline Logical Drive” on
page 101.
Physical drives cannot be formed into a logical drive
Physical drives must support SATA or SAS and be free of media defects in
order to be added to a logical drive. Promise recommends using new
identical physical drives for each logical drive. Also, re-check the data and
power cabling and connections.
System CMOS displays C: or D: drive failure during Startup
Do not reference C: or D: in the Motherboard Standard CMOS for drives
attached to the FastTrak TX Series RAID Controller. Only enter drive
information in the Motherboard CMOS for drives attached to the onboard
IDE controller.
