Important:
1. Make sure you have installed the Serial ATA drives and con-
nected the data cables otherwise you won't be able to en-
ter the RAID BIOS utility.
2. Treat the cables with extreme caution especially while cre-
ating RAID. A damaged cable will ruin the entire installation
process and operating system. The system will not boot and
you will lost all data in the hard drives. Please give special
attention to this warning because there is no way of recov-
ering back the data.
