Array Information
The Array Information window of the setup screen displays all configured drive arrays. Use
this section to create, delete, or edit the existing configurations. The window displays the
drive arrays as a node in a tree, like Microsoft® Windows® Explorer. Open the node to
display the properties of the array. Press the up arrow and down arrow keys to navigate the
properties, and then press the Enter key to edit your selection.
CAUTION: Adding or removing drives from a configured array results in data loss.
Physical Drive Information
The Physical Drive Information window displays all the physical drives connected to the
ATA/100 controller channels and the drive properties. Press the up arrow and down arrow
keys to navigate this section. You cannot edit information in this window.

Switch Windows (the Tab key)—toggles control back and forth between the Array
Information and the Physical Drive Information windows.
Auto Configure RAID 0 (the F1 key)—automatically creates and configures a striped
array based on the available physical drives installed.
Auto Configure RAID 1 (the F2 key)—automatically creates and configures a mirrored
array based on the available physical drives installed. You must have a minimum of two
free hard drives in the array.
Auto Configure RAID 0+1 (the F3 key)—automatically creates and configures a
RAID 0+1 array based on the available physical drives installed. You must have four
hard drives in the array.
IMPORTANT: All previous settings are lost when the Auto Configure option is run for striped,
mirrored, and RAID 0+1 arrays.
Create Array (the F4 key)—creates a drive array. When this option is selected, a default
array template is created. You must edit the array properties to complete the array
creation. Use the arrow keys to highlight a property field, and then press the Enter key to
edit that property. The array properties are as follows:
— Array Type—selects the intended RAID mode including RAID 0, RAID 1,
RAID 0+1, and Spare. The default for the Array Type option is RAID 0.
— Drive(s)—selects the drives for the array. This term refers to the drive number listed
in the Physical Drives Information box, not the number of drives attached. Use the
arrow keys, and then press the spacebar to select or deselect the drive or drives. Press
the Enter key when done. No default exists for this setting.
