Configuring Your Computer for RAID Using the Intel
®
 RAID Option 
ROM Utility
 
NOTE: 
Although any size of drives may be used to create a RAID configuration 
when using the Intel RAID Option ROM utility, ideally the drives should be of equal 
size. In a RAID level 0 configuration, the size of the configuration will be the size of 
the smallest drive multiplied by the number (two) of drives in the configuration. In a 
RAID level 1 configuration, the size of the configuration will be the smaller of the 
two drives used.
Creating a RAID Level 0 Configuration
 
NOTICE: 
You will lose any data on your hard drives when you create a RAID 
configuration using the following procedure. Back up data that you want to keep 
before continuing.
 
NOTE: 
Use the following procedure only if you are reinstalling your operating 
system. Do not use the following procedure to migrate an existing storage 
configuration to RAID level 0 configuration.
