SAS RAID configuration support
SAS RAID in the Altos G330 system requires the installation of the
optional Adaptec 44300 SAS controller board. Contact your local Acer
representative for information on how to purchase this item.
Caution:
Creating a RAID volume erases all data previously saved
in the hard drives. Make sure that you back up important files
before starting a RAID configuration process.
