General Precautions:
‹
The memory size available will be less than the total size of the installed memory.
‹
When the system is set to RAID mode, the RAID controller might occupy some disk space as
buffer. For example, when the ICH7R RAID controller is set to RAID 0 or RAID 1, the total hard
drive capacity will be 512MB~1GB less than the actual capacity.
‹
For users who wish to install operating system in i-RAM, please prepare the minimum free hard
disk space for the operating system.
‹
To protect data integrity and extend battery lifespan, it is not recommended that you unplug the
AC power cord of the power supply.
