 Matrix Storage Manager RAID Configurations

 

An HDD that has been previously configured as part of another RAID set

in another platform is called a broken RAID HDD. When you install a
broken RAID HDD, you cannot select this disk when configuring a RAID
set through the Intel

® 

Matrix Storage Manager option. If you still want to

use this broken RAID HDD as part of the RAID set configured through
the Intel

® 

Matrix Storage Manager, you may do so by resetting the disk to

Non-RAID. You will, however, lose all data and previous RAID configu-
rations.
