4.16 Intel Storage Utility
4.16.1 Description
The Intel Storage utility is a Windows*-based application that provides management
capabilities and detailed status information for storage devices and RAID arrays.
4.16.2 Create Volume Manually
The Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition offers the ability to create a RAID volume. This
option should be used if you are using a third bootable device such as an IDE or SCSI hard
drive – in addition to using two Serial ATA hard drives. One benefit of using a third bootable
device and creating a RAID volume is that the operating system is not located on the RAID
volume. Should something happen to the RAID volume, the operating system should not be
impacted.
Note
The ‘Create RAID Volume’ option is not selectable unless a third
bootable device (such as an IDE or SCSI hard drive) is installed in the
system – in addition to using two Serial ATA hard drives.
