After you restart your computer, please remember to run "FDISK" in DOS mode in order to let your computer find all your hard disks and the completely finished RAID 0 array. Note: 1. At least two hard disks are needed to create the stripe array. .Disks can be connected at any cable and set as either master or slave device. 2. The capacity of the stripe array is equal to the product of the number of total hard disks and the smallest HD capacity. Suggestion: 1. When selecting the strip size , if the user does not know which one is suitable, please select the default size 64K. 2. In order to avoid the capacity waste , try to use hard disks with the identical capacity to create stripe array . 3. For the consideration of performance, if two hard disks are used, please connect them to different IDE channels respectively. Warning: The data on all disks will be destroyed after the creation of the stripe array. 3-14
