Intel ICH9R SATA RAID

(6) Start Migration

The migration process may take up to two hours to complete depending on the size
of the disks  being used and the strip size selected. A  dialogue window will  appear
stating that the migration process may take considerable time to complete, meanwhile
a popup dialogue at the taskbar will also show the migration status. While you can still
continue using your computer during the migration process, once the migration proc-
ess starts, it cannot be stopped. If the migration process  gets interrupted and your
system is rebooted for any reason, it will pick up the migration process where it left
off. You will be provided with an  estimated completion  time (the  remaining time will
depend on your system)  once the migration process starts.

The  following  screen  appears if the migration process  is  completed successfully.
Then you have to reboot your system to use the full  capacity of  the new  volume.
