RAID Troubleshooting

Q & A:

Q: May I use hard drives with different capacity or transfer mode?

A: In order to get optimized performance, we suggest using hard drives with the same model.

Q: How to assign a booting device?

A: You may press <

Ctrl

> <

> to assign a booting device in RAID BIOS (See Chapter 4 for detailed

information).

Q: Why can’t I see correct capacity in FDISK utility?

A: This is a well-known issue of Windows

95/98's FDISK utility. If an IBM 75GB hard disk DTLA

307075 only gets 7768MB in Windows

95/98’s FDISK utility, please contact Microsoft

for a latest

version of FDISK utility. For windows

2000, there is no such a 64GB issue.

Q: How to create a striping and mirror array (RAID 0+1)?

A: You need four HDD drives, every two of them on the same channel/cable build a striping array. Then

create a mirror array by these two striping arrays (See Chapter 4 for detailed information).

Press

Ctrl

> <

> to setup configuration

Choose item 1 to Create RAID.

Choose item 1 to set Array Mode as Striping and Mirror (RAID 0+1).

Choose item 2 to Select Disk Drives. There are two striping arrays built automatically and you

only have to enter twice.

Choose item 4 to Start Creation Process.

Press

Esc

> to finish setting and leave RAID BIOS.

Q: How to rebuild a mirror array when one of the drives corrupts?

A: You need to delete previous array setting, duplicate the data, then rebuild a new array setting (See

Chapter 4 for detailed information).

Press

Ctrl

> <

> to setup configuration

Choose item 2 to Delete Array.

Choose item 3 to Rebuild Mirror Array.

Choose sub item 1 to Select Source Disk, the one with data on it.

Choose sub item 2 to Select Target Disk, the brand new and empty one.

Choose sub item 3 to Start Duplication Process.

After duplication process completes, press <

Esc

> to leave RAID BIOS.
