Resolving Conflicts

When a RAID set is created, the metadata written to the
disk includes drive connection information. If, after a
disk failure, the replacement disk was previously part of
a RAID set (or used in another system), it may have
conflicting metadata. If so, this will prohibit the RAID set
from being either created or rebuilt, in order for the RAID
set to function properly, this old metadata must be first
overwritten with the new metadata. To resolve this, from
the main BIOS window select Resolve Conflicts, then
press Enter, the correct metadata, including the correct
drive connection information, will be written to the
replacement disk.

Low Level Format

Low Level Format is built into the RAID BIOS to make it
more convenient to erase the entire contents of a hard
disk drive, including data, drive and partition
information. The Low Level Format utility works on
single hard drives only, before the RAID set is configured.

Logical Drive Info

This menu item allows the display of the assignment of
physical drives within a logical set (RAID0, RAID1, etc.).
This is a display only function.
