Using the NVRAIDMAN Utility
Morphing from RAID 0+1 to RAID 0
The following example shows you how to convert from a RAID 0+1 array with four disks
to a RAID 0 array with four disks.
1
Go to the system BIOS and make sure that the drives that you want to use are RAID
enabled.
2
Boot to Windows, launch the NVRAIDMAN application, then follow the steps outlined
in
“Creating a Stripe Mirroring Array” on page 61
to create a four-disk mirrored stripe
array. When that is done, you should see a screen shot similar to the following:

Now that a four-disk mirrored stripe array has been created, you can use the
NVRAIDMAN convert feature to morph the array from a four-disk RAID 0+1 into a
four-disk RAID 0 array.
