Using the NVIDIA MediaShield RAID Management Utility

Migrating from RAID 0 to RAID 5

The following example shows you how to migrate from a RAID 0 array with two disks to 
a RAID 5 array with three disks.

1 Go to the system BIOS and make sure that the drives that you want to use are RAID 

2 Boot to Windows, launch the MediaShield application, then follow the steps outlined in 

 to create a two disk stripe array.

When that is done, you should see a screen shot similar to the following:

RAID Array Created

Now that a two disk stripe array has been created, you can use the MediaShield convert 
feature to migrate the array from a two-disk RAID 0 into a three-disk RAID 5 array.
