Check
The capacity of a logical drive seems smaller on OS then that on FastBuild
Utility. This is because FastBuild Utility converts 1 GB to 10,003 bytes while
OS converts 1 GB to 10,243 bytes.
14.
To create another logical drive continuously, follow the same procedure again.
15.
After the settings of logical drives are completed, exit from FastBuild Utility and
reboot the server.

While the server is rebooted, the POST screen shown below appears. Make sure
that "STATUS" is set to "Functional."
