Creating a Spare Hard Drive

A spare hard drive may be created with a RAID 1 array. The spare hard drive is 
not recognized by the operating system, but you can see the spare drive from 
within Disk Manager or the Intel Option ROM Utility. When a member of 
the RAID 1 array is broken, the computer automatically rebuilds the mirror 
array using the spare hard drive as the broken member’s replacement.
