RAID Migration Instructions
The Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition offers the flexibility to upgrade
from a single Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive to a two drive RAID 0 or RAID 1 configu-
ration when an additional SATA hard drive is added to the system. This process will
create a new RAID volume from an existing disk. However, several important steps
must be followed at the time the system is first configured in order to take advantage
of RAID when upgrading to a second SATA hard drive:
1. BIOS must be configured for RAID before installing Windows* XP on the
single SATA hard drive. Refer to P.3-13 BIOS Configuration for properly

driver during Windows Setup.

system is installed.
