5.4.1 Installing the Hard Disks
The RAID 0 setting allows users to reformat two hard disks with the same new OS
simultaneously. RAID 1 arrays can use a pre-existing hard disk along with a blank
hard disk, or two new hard disks.
1. Install the first and second hard disk into the hard disk bays of your system.
Connect each hard disk drive with a separate UltraDMA/100 cable, one to the
Primary ATA-100 IDE connector, and the other to the Secondary ATA-100 IDE
connector onboard the A7V133.
2. Ensure that Jumpers 13 and 14 are set for RAID 0 or 1: Jumper 13: [1-2] and
Jumper 14; [2-3] (See Section 3.4.5, Hardware Setup: Motherboard Settings)
3. Connect the power cables to the hard disks.
