2.3 What you should know before the installation
Before you install the AHARD RAID 66, the following tips may help you to
get the best performance of your system:
Striping Mode
! ! ! ! !
If two hard disks are in different storage capacity, AHARD RAID 66 will
treat smaller one as a standard capacity, and double the standard
capacity as a total available disk capacity.
! ! ! ! !
For one pair connection, jumper setting on each hard disk must set
at the same position either both "Master" or both "Slave". Two hard
disks can not connect in the same connector cable (same IDE port)
on AHARD RAID 66 card.

When using two pairs hard disk on AHARD RAID 66 please identify
each hard disk jumper have been set at "Master" and "Slave" position
on each IDE port cable connector with hard disk (please refer to
Figure 1).
