Setting Up Your RAID Configuration
Setting Up a Non-Bootable NVIDIA RAID Array
All of the tasks that are related to a non-bootable NVIDIA RAID Array can be performed
from Windows using the NVRAIDMAN utility.
Setup Used in This Section
This section assumes the following setup:
Boot Disk
One hard disk connected to the Primary IDE channel, and set to Master or Slave.
RAID Array Disks
RAID0
Two hard disks connected to the secondary IDE channel, where one is set to Master
and the other set to Slave.
This example shows how to enable RAID 0 on the two hard disks.
RAID1
Two hard disks connected to the secondary IDE channel, where one is set to Master
and the other set to Slave.
This example shows how to enable RAID 1 on the two hard disks.
JBOD/Spanning
Two hard disks connected to the secondary IDE channel, where one is set to Master
and the other set to Slave.
This example shows how to enable a JBOD/Spanning array on the two hard disks.
RAID0+1
Two hard disks connected to the secondary IDE channel, where one is set to Master
and the other set to Slave
Two SATA hard disks
Two hard disks will be used for striping and two hard disks will be used for
mirroring.
