LaCie 5big Backup Server Configuration Guide 10. The next window lists three recovery options (Fig. 85). While each choice enables you to run the Connector as if it were the first installation, there are different levels of drive formatting. Please read each description carefully in order to understand which option is best for you. Briefly: ✦✦ System Partition Format: The Windows Home Server operating system uses a portion of Disk 1 (see 1.5. Windows Home Server and the 5big Enclosure Disks). This option attempts to format only the operating system information before reinstalling a new version. This is the least destructive option. ✦✦ Disk 1 Format: All of Disk 1 (see 1.5. Windows Home Server and the 5big Enclosure Disks) will be formatted before the operating system is reinstalled. Data stored on Disk 1 will be deleted. ✦✦ Factory Reset: All connected drives (including USB and eSATA drives attached to the 5big Backup Server) will be formatted before the operating system is reinstalled on Disk 1 (see 1.5. Windows Home Server and the 5big Enclosure Disks). This option will delete all data on all the disks. IMPORTANT INFO: No matter the level of formatting you choose, all User information will be deleted. You may add new users and run the Connector from each workstation on the network once the recovery has finished. 11. Select the best recovery mode and click Next> (Fig. 85). 12.
