5.4.1 Installing the Hard Disks The RAID 0 setting allows users to reformat two hard disks with the same new OS simultaneously. RAID 1 arrays can use a pre-existing hard disk along with a blank hard disk, or two new hard disks. 1. Install the first and second hard disk into the hard disk bays of your system. Connect each hard disk drive with a separate UltraDMA/100 cable, one to the Promise IDE1 connector, and the other to the Promise IDE2 connector onboard the A7V333. NOTE: Do not connect any other types of IDE devices to the Promise IDE connectors; they support hard disk drive devices only. 2. Connect the power cables to the hard disks. 3. Make sure the RAID_EN jumper is reset to [1-2] and, if available, ensure the BIOS settings in the Advanced PCI Configuration sub-menu are set to enable RAID arrays: "SCSI/ATA100 Boot Sequence" field should be set to [ATA100/SCSI] and the "Load Onboard ATA BIOS" field should be set to [Auto]. 4. Boot-up the PC. 5.4.2 Enter FastTrak100 BIOS and FastBuild Utility 1. Boot-up your computer once more.
