MS-7581 (4) Specify Volume Size Specify the amount of available array space to be used by the new RAID volume. You may enter the amount in the space or use the slider to specify. It is recommended you use 100% of the available space for the optimized usage. For RAID 0 volume, if you do not specify 100% of the hard drive space, the rest hard drive space will be worked as RAID 1 volume, which is the new technology called Intel Matrix RAID. Then click "Next" to continue. (5) Start Creating RAID Volume from Existing Hard Drive Wizard Before you continue the procedure of RAID volume creation from existing hard drive, read the dialogue box below carefully. Please note that once you click "Finish", the existing data on the selected hard drive(s) will be deleted permanently and this operation cannot be undone. It is critical that you backup all important data before selecting "Finish" to start the migration process. C-21
