Creating a Security Array with New Drives
Under the Security setting, FastTrak S150 TX4 permits two drives to be used for
a single Mirrored array or four drives to be used for a Mirrored/Striped array in
Auto Setup.
Note
When creating a Security array with new drives, a feature called
Gigabyte Boundary will automatically be set to ON. For a
description of this feature, see page 23 of the
User Manual
on
the software CD.
To create an array for data protection using new hard drives, follow these steps:
1. Press the Spacebar to choose
Security
under the Optimize Array for
section.
2. Press Ctrl-Y to Save your selection.
3. The window below will appear.
Do you want the disk image to be
duplicated to another or do quick
initialize or create only?
Y - Create and Duplicate
N - Create Only
I - Create and Quick Initialize
4. Press N for the Create Only option.
5. A window will appear almost immediately confirming that your Security array
has been created. Press any key to reboot the system.

6. Proceed with normal FDISK and format procedures as if you had just
installed a new hard drive.
7. Once the arrayed drives have been formatted, proceed to Chapter 4 of this
Manual to install your operating system and/or FastTrak driver.
