5. When fi nished, press
Done
(as shown on the following screen).
Notes
1. Before adding a new drive to an array, back up any data contained on the
new drive. Otherwise, all data will be lost.
2. If you stop the build or clear process on a RAID 1 from ACU, you can restart
it by pressing <Ctrl> + <R>.
3. A RAID 1 created using the Quick Init option may return some data mis-com-
pares if you later run a consistency check. This is normal and is not a cause
for concern.
4. The ACU allows you to use drives of different sizes in a RAID. However,
during a build operation, only the smaller drive can be selected as the source
or fi rst drive.
5. When migrating from single volume to RAID 0, migrating from a larger drive
to a smaller drive is allowed. However, the destination drive must be at least
half the capacity of the source drive.
6. Adaptec does not recommend that you migrate or build an array on Windows
dynamic disks (volumes), as it will result in data loss.
Warning
: Do not interrupt the creation of RAID 0 using the Migrate option. If
you do, you will not be able to restart or to recover the data that was on the
source drive.
Adding a Bootable Array
1. From the Main menu, select
Manage Arrays.
2. From the list of arrays, select the array you want to make bootable and press
<Ctrl> + <B>.
3. Enter "Y" to create a bootable array when the following message is displayed:
"This will make all other existing bootable array non-bootable. Do you want to
make this array bootable? (Yes/No):" A bootable array will then be created. An
asterisk will appear next to the bootable array.
Deleting a Bootable Array
1. From the Main menu, select
Manage Arrays.
2. From the List of Arrays, select the bootable array* you want to delete and press
<Ctrl> + <B>. (A bootable array is an array marked with an asterisk.)
3. Enter "Y" to delete a bootable array when the following message is displayed:
"The array is already marked bootable. Do you want to make this array as not
