Next, you will see a list of all attached HDD/SSDs that can be used to rebuild the array.
Select the disk, then click on it or press enter.
Once the process has started you will see the status change to “Rebuilding.”
**Important Notice**: The controller will not begin the rebuilding process until you
have booted back into Windows; this queues the rebuild but does not start the process.
The rebuilding duration will vary. Fast drives in uncomplicated arrays with small
amounts of data can rebuild very quickly. Large platter drive-based arrays, especially in
RAID5, can take several hours to rebuild. The duration of the rebuild process will
further increase based on the usage of both the array and the CPU during the process.
The rebuild process can be monitored from the “Intel Rapid Storage Technology” utility
in Windows, which is effectively the software front-end for the Intel SATA controller.
The rebuild status can be viewed in the “Manage” tab, located on the top of the IRST
Window. Please see the image at the top of Page 76 to see an example of where to find
the rebuilding % in the IRST.
