5.3.5 Delete Arrays

Highlight the Delete command from the toolbar, and press Enter key.
The BIOS utility will display a list of available RAID arrays. Select the
array you wish to delete, and press the Enter key.
The utility will display a warning message. Press Y (yes) to delete the
array, or select N (no) to cancel.
Warning: All data stored on the array will be lost – do not delete if the
array contains critical data.

5.3.6 Add/Remove Spare Disks

This Add/Remove Spare command is used to assign a hard disk to act
as a Spare Disk. Spare Disks are used to automatically rebuild
Redundant RAID arrays (RAID 1, 5, 10) in the case of disk failure. As
with creating RAID arrays, disks must be initialized before they can be
used as spares. To set a hard disk to act as a Spare Disk, use the arrow
keys to select the target disk from the list of initialized disks, and
press Enter key. To remove the Spare Disk setting from a hard disk,
highlight the spare disk, and press Enter key. Generally, single disks
are designated to act as spares (disks that are not configured into
RAID arrays). However, in some instances, disks that are members of
RAID arrays may also be designated to act as a spare. If the disks in
question are part of a RAID array that did not utilize the full available
capacity at the time of creation, these disks may be used as spares.
