5.1 NVRAID

5.1.1 Basic Configuration Instruction

The following are the basic steps for configuring NVRAID

5.1.1.1 Non-Bootable RAID Array

①

Choose the hard disks that are to be RAID enabled in the system BIOS.

②

Specify the RAID level, either Mirroring (RAID 1), Striping (RAID 0), Striping and

Mirroring (RAID 0+1), or Spanning (JBOD) and create the desired RAID array.

③

Install the operating system on one hard disk, then reboot the system.

④

Run the Windows nForce Setup application and install the RAID driver.

⑤

Initialize the NVRAID Array.

5.1.1.2 Bootable RAID Array

①

Choose the hard disks that are to be RAID enabled in the system BIOS.

②

Specify the RAID level, either Mirroring (RAID 1), Striping (RAID 0), Striping and

Mirroring (RAID 0+1), or Spanning (JBOD) and create the desired RAID array.

③

Boot from the Windows CD, then press F6 when the Windows Setup appears.

④

Insert the RAID driver floppy to install the nForce RAID diver.

⑤

Initialize the NVRAID Array.
