96 Intel RAID SRCU31 Users Guide
After pressing <Y> the user may limit the capacity of each hard disk drive selected for the new host
drive (Figure 27). This can be helpful when procuring future spare hard disk drives. StorCon then
creates and configures the new host drive and adds it to the list. All SCSI parameters are adjusted
to optimum values.

NOTE
If the entire hard disk capacity is not used when configuring a RAID 1 host drive, you cannot use
the remaining capacity to expand the array drive in the future.
Figure 28. Drive Status
After leaving StorCon or after pressing <F10> (for refresh) the Intel RAID Controller SRCU31
begins the build process on the new host drive. In our example it calculates the parity information
and writes it to the hard disk drives. The status during this process is build. When the build is
successfully finished the status changes to ready.
Host Drive Options
Select a host drive and press <Enter> to open the host drive options dialog (Figure 29).

Change Drive Name:
Use Change Drive Name to change the name of a host drive. The name serves to identify a host
drive with StorCon. For example, you could name the boot host drive “Boot” and the data host
drive “Data.”
