Recovery Volume Options
Intel Rapid Recover Technology provides data protection by allowing users to easily restore data and system
operation using a designated recovery drive. With the Rapid Recovery Technology, which employs RAID 1
functionality, users can copy the data from the master drive to the recovery drive; if needed, the data on the
recovery drive can be restored back to the master drive.
Before you begin:
•
The recovery drive must have equal or greater capacity than the master drive.
•
A recovery volume can be created with two hard drives only. A recovery volume and a RAID array cannot
co-exist in the system at the same time, that is, if you have already created a recovery volume, you are
unable to create a RAID array.
• O
nly the master drive can be riewed in the operating system; the recovery drive is hidden.
Step 1:
select
Create RAID Volume in MAIN MENU and press <Enter> (Figure 8).
