Once the array is completed you will see the text shown on the next page, or something
similar based on the array type and drives used. At this point, the array is ready to use.
If your array will be your boot drive, the operating system will normally detect the array
and see it as a single drive (this is expected), it *MAY* detect it as a RAID array; either
way, the OS installation will show the size of the array, not a single drive, and allow you
to install the OS to the array without any further steps. However, depending on the OS
version, you may need to install RAID drivers for the RAID array to be detected.
If this is meant to be a secondary array, your next step is to partition and format the
array within Windows. Please see Page 80 for setup in Windows 10.
Repairing an array within UEFI
This guide will show you how to repair a degraded array from within the UEFI. For
testing purposes, a drive was intentionally removed from a RAID5 array and wiped to
guarantee that the array rebuild behaved the same as if a new replacement drive was
added to a degraded array.
