2.20.3   Migrating a “RAID Ready” System to RAID 0, RAID 1 or    
 
RAID 5  
If you have an existing “RAID Ready” system, then you can use the following
steps to perform a migration from a single non-RAID confi guration to a two drive 
RAID 0, RAID 1 confi guration or three drive RAID 5 confi guration. To prepare for 
this, you will need another SATA / SATAII hard drive with a capacity equal to or 
greater than that currently being used as the source hard drive.
1. Physically attach one additional SATA / SATAII / SATA3 hard drive to the SATAII  
    / SATA3 port not being used. Note the serial number of the hard drive already in  
    the system; you will use this to select it as the source hard drive when initiating  
    the migration.
2. Boot Windows
®
, install the Intel(R) Rapid Storage software, if not already  
     
    installed, using the setup package obtained from a CD-ROM or from the  
     
    Internet. This will install the necessary Intel Storage Utility and start menu links.
3. Open the Intel Storage Utility from the Start Menu and select “Create RAID  
     
    volume from Existing Hard Drive” from the Actions menu. This will activate the  
    Create RAID volume from Existing Hard Drive Wizard. Click through the dialogs  
    as prompted. It’s important to understand what will occur during the migration        
    process because any data on the destination hard drive will be lost.
4. Once the migration is complete, reboot the system. If you migrated to a RAID 0  
    volume, use Disk Management from within Windows
®
 in order to partition and        
    format the empty space created when the two hard drive capacities are  
     
    combined. You may also use third-party software to extend any existing  
     
    partitions within the RAID volume.
5. Finish the Windows
®
 installation and install all necessary drivers.
6. Install the Intel(R) Rapid Storage software via the CD-ROM included with your  
    motherboard or after downloading it from the Internet. This will add the Intel(R)  
    Rapid Storage Console which can be used to manage the RAID confi guration.
7. After setting up a “RAID Ready” system as the above steps, you can follow the   
    procedures of the next section to migrate the system to RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID
