Gigabyte GA-K8V Ultra-939 User Manual page 78

After array mode is selected, there are two methods to create a disk array. One method is Auto Setup and
the other one is Select Disk Drives. Auto Setup allows BIOS to select the disk drives and create arrays
automatically, but it does not duplicate the mirroring drives even if the user selected Create and duplicate for
RAID 1. It is recommended all disk drives are new ones when wanting to create an array. Select Disk
Drives lets the user select the array drives by their requirements. Select the Select Disk Drives item and
press Enter, use the arrow key to select the hard disk. The selected hard disk will be marked a star(*) signal.

If you select a RAID 0 array, the block size of the array can also be selected. Use the arrow key to select
Block Size and press Enter, then select a block size from the popup menu. The block size can be 4KB to
64KB.

to cancel the creation.
Important note: All existing contents in the hard drive will be destroyed after array creation.
