Deleting a RAID 0 or 5 volume, however, destroys all data on the volume. 1 Click the Start button and point to Programs→ Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager→ Intel Matrix Storage Console to launch the Intel Storage Utility. 2 Right-click the Volume icon of the RAID volume you want to delete, and select Delete Volume. 3 On the Delete RAID Volume Wizard screen, click Next. 4 Highlight the RAID volume you want to delete in the Available box, click the right-arrow button to move the highlighted RAID volume into the Selected box, and then click Next. 56 Advanced Features
