C. Rebuilding an Array
Rebuilding is the process of restoring data to a hard drive from other drives in the array. Rebuilding applies
only to fault-tolerant arrays such as RAID 1, RAID 5 or RAID 10 arrays. The procedures below assume a new
drive is added to replace a failed drive to rebuild a RAID 1 array. (Note: The new drive must have equal or
greater capacity than the old one.)
Turn off your computer and replace the failed hard drive with a new one. Restart your computer.

Enabling Automatic Rebuild
Step 1:
When the message "Press <Ctrl-I> to enter Configuration Utility" appears, press <Ctrl> + <I> to enter the
RAID Configuration Utility. The following screen appears after you enter the RAID Configuration Utility.
Step 2:
Select the new hard drive to add into the array to be rebuilt and press <Enter>. The following screen appears,
indicating that an automatic rebuild will be performed after you enter the operating system (look for the Intel
Rapid Storage Technology icon in the notification area, which will show that a RAID volume is being
rebuilt). If you do not enable automatic rebuild on this stage, you have to manually rebuild the array in the
operating system (see the next page for more details).
