Adding Fault Tolerance to an Existing Drive
FastTrak100 will create a mirrored array using an existing
system drive with data. You must assign the existing drive and
another drive of same or larger capacity to the Mirroring array.
The BIOS will send the existing data to the new blank drive.
WARNING
: Backup any necessary data before
proceeding. Failure to follow this accepted PC
practice could result in data loss.
WARNING
: If you wish to include your current bootable
drive using the Windows NT 4.x or Windows 2000
operating system as part of a bootable Mirrored (RAID 1)
array on your FastTrak100, do NOT connect the hard
drive to the FastTrak100 controller yet. You MUST install the Windows
NT4 or 2000 driver software first (see page xx) to this drive while it is still
attached to your existing hard drive controller. For all other Operating
Systems, proceed here.
