General Installation Notes
This section identifies the minimum hardware and software required to successfully
install the ICP RAID controller with the accompanying RAID Software Suite. Ensure that
you have completed the steps described in
Chapter 2, “Getting Started,”
before beginning
the installation described in this chapter.
7.1.1
Minimum Hardware Requirements
For detailed hardware requirements, specifications, and installation procedures specific to
your ICP RAID controller, consult the Hardware Guide
.
7.1.1.1
Computer System Requirements
Computer with CD-ROM Drive (not attached to the ICP RAID controller)
One available PCI slot
ICP RAID controller
PCI 2.2 compliant system BIOS
SCSI hard disk drives (the minimum needed to meet desired RAID level requirements)
