Installing SATA hard disk drives
Your computer must have the minimum number of SATA hard disk drives installed for the supported level of
RAID below:
• RAID Level 0 – Striped disk array
– Two hard disk drives minimum
– Better performance without fault tolerance
• RAID Level 1 – Mirrored disk array
– Two hard disk drives minimum
– Improved read performance and 100% redundancy
• RAID Level 5 – Block-level striped disk array with distributed parity
– Three hard disk drives minimum
– Data striped at the byte level
– Stripe error correction information
– Better performance and fault tolerance
To install a new SATA hard disk drive, see “Installing a new hard disk drive” on page 84.
