System Requirements: • Computer with one available PCI slot • Windows DOS/NT/2000/XP/2003 server RAID 0/1 described Stripe (RAID 0): Greatly increases the performance of data transfer by simultaneously writing data to 2 drives. Mirror (RAID 1): duplicates or mirrors the data on both drives. No data will be lost if one of the drives fails. Mirror-Striping (RAID 0+1) Combined both Striping and Mirroring technologies to provide both the performance enhancements that come from Striping and the data availability and integrity that come from Mirroring. RAID 1+S (Mirrored-Sparing) Can automatically replace the failed drive and rebuild the system when booting HDD failed. Important Note: • To do a RAID SET, you can press F4 or CTRL+S from the boot up screen. Read and follow the instruction inside the BIOS screen. • You can also install the SATA GUI utility Under Windows to monitor the RAID Set. It is under the Utility section of the driver disc. • Use the controller BIOS setup for creating RAID SET.
