5-2.11 How FastTrak100-Lite Saves Array Information

All disk array data are saved into the reserved sector on each array member.
Promise suggests that users record their disk array information for future
reference.
Another feature of the FastTrak100-Lite disk array system is to recognize
drive members event if drives are moved between different FastTrak100-Lite
card connectors. Since each drive's array data identifies itself to the array,
it is possible to move or swap drives without modifying the array setup.
This is valuable when adding drives, or during a rebuild.

5-2.12 Deleting An Array

The Delete Array <4> Menu option allows for deletion of disk array
assignments. This is not the same as deleting data from the drives
themselves. If you delete an array by accident (and before it be used again),
the array can normally be recovered by defining the array identically as
deleted array (by Using Auto Setup).
WARNING:
Deleting an exiting disk array could result in its data loss.
Make sure to record all array information including the array type, the
disk members, and stripe block size in case you wish to undo a deletion.
