7. INITIALIZING G-SATA
Now that G-SATA is physically connected to your computer, it
must be initialized for use with your operating system.
•
For Mac OS X installations, follow the instructions below
•
For Windows 2000/XP installations, proceed to Section 7.2
7.1
Mac OS X (10.4)
G-SATA is initialized at the factory as a striped (RAID 0)
Mac OS X volume. Power on G-SATA, wait 10 seconds, then
power on your Mac. G-SATA will mount on the desktop as
shown below.
Note:
G-SATA may also be initialized as two independent volumes or as a
mirrored (RAID 1)
volume for data security
.
Consult your Mac OS X
documentation on the steps required to re-initialize
as individual volumes
or as a mirror.
If it becomes necessary to re-initialize G-SATA as a striped
volume (RAID 0) for Mac OS X, follow the instructions on
the next page.
