Install Silicon Serial ATA RAID Driver (IS7-G)
E-3
BIOS Setup for Serial ATA
RAID (IS7-G)
The Silicon Serial ATA controller supports the
RAID array of both Striped (RAID 0) and
Mirrored (RAID 1). For the striped RAID set,
the identical drives can read and write data in
parallel to increase performance. The Mirrored
RAID set creates a complete backup of your
files. Striped and Mirrored RAID set requires 2
hard disks to do so.

NOTE:
If you want to create a RAID 0 (striping)
array, all the data stored in the hard disks will
first be erased! Please backup the hard disk data
before starting to create the RAID array.
If you want to create a RAID 1 (mirroring) array,
please make sure which hard disk is the source
disk and which one is the destination disk. If
you make a mistake, you may copy the blank
data to the source disk, which will result in both
hard disks becoming blank!
Option 1

After you had selected the function from the
main menu, press the <
Enter

sub menu as shown below:

Array Mode:

RAID mode for the desired array. There are two
modes to choose. When you choose a “Striped”
or “Mirrored” RAID set, the utility will ask
“Are You Sure?” before the Creating RAID
process. Press <Y> to confirm.
NOTE:
It is highly recommended to attach hard
disks with the same model in reaching the
RAID performance.

disks.
Mirror (RAID 1):

for
data security
usage. Requires at least 2
disks.
