Creating Your Disk Array
You will now use the FastBuild BIOS utility to create your array using the attached drives. There
are two different scenarios in creating this array. You can create an array for performance, you
can create a Security array using new hard drives (recommended).
WARNING: If creating a Security array using an existing hard drive, backup
any necessary data. Failure to follow this accepted PC practice could result in
data loss.
1. Boot your system. If this is the first time you have booted with RAID, the FastBuild BIOS
will display the following screen.
