Reset Disks to Non-RAID
Reset RAID volume allows you to replace a failed disk with a new one, and the
operating system will rebuild the data later. For RAID0, reset a hard disk would totally
crash the system, but for RAID1, RAID10 and RAID5, they all can be rebuilt.
When rebuild is needed, you must first install a new hard disk in your system before
getting into Intel
®
Matrix Storage Manager utility, because the utility will ask you which
hard disk the new rebuild will be performed.
example 1. Reset a RAID0 system.
