Splitting the RAID drives
Ensure that your system is in full working order and the RAID hardware
configuration is set up properly as described on page 163.

You must verify that the RAID channel 1 is connected to
the first three hard drives on the left as facing the machine,
and channel 2 is connected to the last three on the right.
Either open the lid and follow the cables or take one hard
drive offline and observe which drive is marked FAIL by
the system. If the drive matches the graphic location on the
Windows MegaRAID console, proceed with the next step.
The drives must not be un-seated, re-seated or disconnected
during the RAID splitting process unless you are planning
to replace the drives.
