Using a Pre-loaded SCSI Drive "As-is"

CAUTION To use a pre-loaded drive in the manner described here, you must make it the first logical
drive defined (for example: LD1) on the controller to which it is connected.
You may have a SCSI disk drive that is already loaded with software. The drive may be a
boot disk containing an operating system. You can use the MegaRAID controller as a SCSI
adapter for such a drive by performing the following steps.
To use a pre-loaded SCSI drive:
1. Connect the SCSI drive to one of the channels on the MegaRAID controller, with proper
termination and target ID settings.
2. Boot the system and start Setup by pressing
3. Choose Easy Configuration from the Configure menu.

the logical drive configuration screen.
7. Set the read policy and cache option on the Advanced menu.

9. Press
