BIOS Commands

Create - this command is used to open the RAID Creation menu.

Delete - this command will delete the selected RAID array.

Add/Remove Spare - this command is used to assign hard disks to function as spare

disks. The controller is capable of using spare disks to automatically rebuild broken or

faulted RAID arrays.

staggered drive spinup)

View – this command is used to select between two views: Devices (HARD DISKS),

and Arrays (configured RAID arrays).

Initialize - this command is used to prepare disks for use with RAID arrays. Disks

must be initialized before they can be used to create arrays.

2 - Creating RAID Arrays

Initializing Disks:

Before creating a RAID array, the disks must be initialized. Disk initialization writes

necessary RAID configuration information to the hard disks. Select the Initialize

command from the toolbar, and press ENTER.
