Creating A New Raid-0 Array - Toshiba Qosmio G35-AV650 Series User Manual

NOTE

Creating a new RAID-0 array

When RAID-0 is configured, the total hard disk capacity will
appear to the operating system as twice that of the smaller of
the two hard drives in the RAID configuration. For example,
when a RAID-0 array is configured with one 40 GB hard disk
and one 60 GB hard disk, the computer's total hard disk will
appear to the operating system as 80 GB. You cannot use the
remaining 20 GB on the larger hard disk drive.
Using the RAID-0 or RAID-1 Utility
If the operating system is shut down before the RAID-1
configuration is complete, the RAID-1 configuration will
automatically resume when the computer is restarted.
Once the computer has been restarted you can continue to
work while the configuration resumes.
Before configuring your system for RAID-0, make sure you
back up all data on your computer's hard drives onto another
storage media. When a RAID-0 array is created, all data on
both your primary and secondary hard disks is erased and
cannot be recovered. Toshiba is not responsible for any loss of
data on your hard disks.
