Page 95 highlights

Chapter 3 RAID Setting Guide 5. 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+1 array. Note: 1. Four hard disks are needed in the creation of the 0+1 array. 2. In the creation of the 0+1 array, the source disk will actually be the first stripe array composed of two hard disks, the mirror disk will actually be the second stripe array composed of two hard disks. 3. The capacity of the stripe array as the source disk shall be not larger than that of the stripe array as the mirror disk. 4. The capacity of the 0+1 array is equal to that of the stripe array as the source disk. 5. Version 1.11 RAID Administrator does not support disk hot-swapping of RAID 0+1 array. User must replace the failed disk after the computer is turned off, and then rebuild the 0+1 array in BIOS. Suggestion: In order to avoid the capacity waste , please use hard disks with the identical capacity to create the 0+1 array. Warning: The data on all member disks will be destroyed after creating the 0+1 array. 3-26
