A:
This problem happens only under Windows 2000 (even with SP3) as it detects the drive configuration
change. This message box may show up more than one time, depending on how many drives have been
created or deleted. Simply press ‘OK’ button to continue. Then reboot system as the last step since RAID
configuration has been changed.

Q:
When I want to partition my newly created RAID drive, why are there red mark at disk management?
A:
This problem only happens under Windows 2000 (even with SP3). When you change drive configuration
and do not do any partition action before entering Windows 2000, if you check the disk management, there
sometime is a red cross mark showing a missing disk or a red minus mark showing an unknown disk. The
following picture shows an example:
Under this situation, you need to right click mouse at the disk that has red cross mark or red minus mark. Apply
the ‘Write Signature’ to notify Windows 2000 to adjust the disk signature as shown in the following picture. The
disk will be at normal status and ready for partition.
