AEC-6896S/6896 Manual

3.1.2 Build Mirror Disk

When replacing a mirrored hard drive, you can rebuild the hard drive's data by
"Build Mirror Disk" according to the prompt upon booting. Please see 3.2.2.
NOTICE: The rebuilding time depends on the size of RAID. You can press
Ctrl + S to stop rebuilding.

3.1.3 Quick Erase Disk

This function allows you to quickly erase the data on a selected hard drive. Beware
that the data and the partitions will be erased.

3.1.4 RAID Mode Help

This function chiefly tells you that RAID 0+1 requires 4 hard drives. If your hard
drives are ATA ones, you are strongly recommended to set the disk jumper as CS
(cable selection).

3.1.5 Card Information

This function indicates the I/O address, ROM address and IRQ number currently
used by AEC-6896.

3.1.6 Set Boot Disk

This function lets you select a hard drive or an array containing OS to boot. But you
need to enter BIOS of the motherboard, then boot "Other Boot Device". If a hard
drive has been set as boot disk, there will be a * appearing before its model number.

3.2 Setting of RAID Mode

AEC-6896 supports RAID 0, 1, 0+1 and JBOD modes. The hardware setting re-
lated to each RAID mode is briefly described below. Yet, you are suggested to use
the AEC-6896 RAID Utility to set RAID. Please refer to Chapter 5 and Appendix A.
