RAID Configuration and Management

Build Array

used to rebuild the array using a spare drive. When Build
Array starts, it prompts the user to select the target drive, and then the rebuild

attached to the Integrated ATA RAID controller.

Delete Array (F5)
—allows you to delete a currently configured array.
Restore Old Configuration (F6)
—restores the configuration that was there
before you entered the utility.
Edit Options (F7)
—edits the physical drive option status boxes located in the
top right corner of the
Physical Drive Information
window. The options are as
follows:
—
WC-OFF
—enables or disables write cache.
CAUTION:
Enabling write cache may cause data loss or corruption during an
unexpected loss of power.
—
DMA-ON
—enables or disables DMA (direct memory access) transfers, in
which data is transferred directly from the memory to the hard drive without
microprocessor intervention.
Pressing the
F7
key allows you to enable or disable these options. Press the
F7
key, move the cursor to the desired box, and then press the spacebar to check off
the option. When enabled, the option status boxes change from red to green.
•
Save and Exit (F10)
—saves the configuration and exits the utility.
If you do not want to save the configuration or any changes that you have made,
press the
Esc
key. Respond appropriately to the subsequent message boxes
requiring confirmation.
