Deleting a disk array will destroy all the data on the disk array except RAID 1 arrays. When a RAID is
deleted, the data on these two hard disk drives will be reserved and become two normal disk drives.
Select Boot Array
User can select a disk array as boot device if user wants to boot operating system from an array.
Boot disk array cannot be selected if the operating system does not boot from the disk array. Highlight
the Select Boot Array item; press <Enter> and the channel column will be activated. Then highlight the
target disk array and press <Enter>. If user selects a disk array that has a boot mark and press <Enter>,
its boot setting will be canceled.
