Creating Your Disk Array
You will now use the onboard FastBuild BIOS utility to create your array using
the attached drives. There are three different scenarios in creating this array.
You can create an array for performance, you can create a Security array using
new hard drives (recommended), or you can create a Security array using an
existing hard drive and a new hard drive.
Warning
If creating a Security array using an existing hard drive, backup
any necessary data. Failure to follow this accepted PC practice
could result in data loss.
Boot your system. If this is the first time you have booted with the FastTrak
TX4000 card and drives installed, the Promise onboard BIOS will display the
following screen.
