Creating a Security Array with an Existing Data Drive
Use this setting to create a Mirrored (RAID 1) array with a new hard drive and an
existing drive with data and/or the bootable system drive in your system. Use a
new drive of identical or larger storage capacity as the existing drive.
Warning
If you are creating a Security array using an existing hard drive,
backup any important data. Failure to do so could result in data
loss.
Important
If you wish to include your current bootable drive using the
Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, or Windows XP operating
system as part of a bootable Mirrored (RAID 1) array on your
FastTrak S150 TX4, do NOT connect the hard drive to the
FastTrak yet.
You MUST install the Windows NT4, 2000, or XP driver software
first to this drive while it is still attached to your existing hard
drive controller. See chapter 4 of this Manual.
Follow these steps:
1. Press the Spacebar to choose Security under the Optimize Array for
section.
2. Press Ctrl-Y to Save your selection. The window below will appear.
Do you want the disk image to be
duplicated to another or do quick
initialize or create only?
Y - Create and Duplicate
N - Create Only
I - Create and Quick Initialize
3. Press Y for the Create and Duplicate option. The window below will appear
asking you to select the Source drive to use. FastBuild will copy all data
from the Source drive to the Target drive.
