Drive Installation Considerations
„
Selecting an enclosure.
If you are planning to use RAID 1, 5,
6, 10, or 50, you may want to consider installing drives into
hot-swappable enclosures, so that they can be easily removed in
the event of a drive failure. For a discussion of RAID levels,
see the
3ware Serial ATA RAID Controller User Guide .
„
When to install the drives.
If the drives are not already
installed in your computer, you can choose to install them
either before or after installing the 9650SE controller. In either
case, be sure to connect the SATA cable from the drive to the
controller and connect the drive to power before turning on the
system or you will not be able to see or configure the drives.
Things to Watch Out For During Installation of the RAID
Controller

system.
Excessive force can damage the board or your system.
Be sure to follow the installation instructions in “Chapter 2.
