10.6.7 Drive initialization function

The drive initialization function initializes the configuration information of the HDD used as a

software RAID (effectively creating a new HDD). Use this function in the following cases.

• Reusing an HDD that was used as a backup HDD

• Reusing a normal HDD that was made offline by mistake

• Reusing an HDD that was made offline by the RAS software for evaluating the computer

1. Display the

Soft RAID Utility

menu window.

• If an HDD is reused by using the drive initialization function in a state that is not

described in this manual, the system may not be recovered or may not operate
correctly even after it is recovered.

• An HDD that was automatically made offline by the computer may be defective.

Do not use the drive initialization function for such HDD units.
