Setting or Modifying the RAID Mode
NOTE: Setting or modifying the RAID mode destroys all data.
1. 
Follow the procedure for resetting the RAID Mode.
2. 
Power down the unit and set the dip switch to the desired RAID Mode.
3. 
While holding the SET button with a ballpoint pen, turn the unit on. A 
long beep will sound from the Port Multiplier. The SET button may be released 
once the long beep stops.
If instead of a long beep the Port Multiplier sounds a series of short beeps, an 
error has occurred during configuration of the array.
Windows users may install the JMicron HW RAID Manager application located 
on the SATA Controller CD. In the CD, browse to Configuration Utilities → 
JMB393. The JMicron HW RAID Manager can be used to create, modify, and 
monitor the health status of the RAID drives, and  provide status alerts. When 
configuring the RAID mode using the RAID Manager application, it is strongly 
recommended to leave the dip switch in the factory default setting.
Using identical drives for all settings other than JBOD or LARGE is strongly 
recommended. Creating a LARGE array using drives that have different 
properties will use all space on all members, and performance will match that 
of the member in use during any particular I/O operation. Creating a RAID 
using drives that are not all the same size will result in all members using only 
as much space as the smallest member. Creating a RAID using drives that 
have different performance will degrade the overall performance of the array.

BZS Switch (SW1:1):
The BZ switch is used to silence the audible alarm buzzer. The OFF position 
permits the audible alarm, and the ON position silences the audible alarm. 
The BZ switch has immediate effect.
EZ Switch (SW1:2):
The EZ (spare) switch inhibits spares when ON. When in the OFF position, 
all individual drives (not defined as members of an array) are considered 
spare. Should a RAID become degraded, when the EZ switch is in the OFF 
position a spare drive will be used automatically to rebuild the RAID, if 
present. EZ mode is determined when the unit is powered up. Changing the 
switch will have no effect until the unit has been re-powered.
