The Pegasus2 is shipped with HDD installed and a RAID array configured, so it is not necessary to do
this yourself. However, if you want to change the disk drives or configure a different RAID, you will need
to create an array and logical drive to use the storage.
If you are installing new disk drives, use the Wizard to create a disk array and logical drive. The
procedures are described in the next chapter.
To see the Wizard menu, launch the PROMISE Utility, in the Dashboard menu, under System Status,
click the Disk Array link. See "The PROMISE Utility interface with the Dashboard displayed" on page
20.
The Wizard dialog box opens with three configuration methods.
