8 SATARAID5 GUI Overview
The SATARAID5 GUI Installation program configures the SATARAID5 GUI to automatically start when Windows is started. If
the SATARAID5 GUI does not automatically start or is closed by the user, choose the SATARAID5 program from the Start
Menu to launch the GUI.
The SATARAID5 GUI monitors the system's RAID Group. The main window will display:
8.1 RAID Groups and Device Configuration Windows
The RAID Groups window identifies SATA host adapters and configured RAID groups. Selecting each RAID group in the RAID
Groups window, members consisting of the RAID group will be highlighted in the Device Configuration window.
Right clicking on each node in the RAID Group window, a popup menu will be displayed to let user select action to be
performed for the selected controller or RAID group.
The Device Configuration window identifies all physical drives and their partitions. A physical drive can be partitioned to
several portions and each portion can be a RAID group member, a spare drive, or a virtual drive.
