IMPORTANT: Prior to controller card installation, read the SATA
RAID manual on the enclosed CD in the folder: \SATA Raid_2Port\
SiI3x12\Win98_me_2000_xp_nt4.0\Gui. This RAID manual has more
information about RAID architecture, features, installation and settings,
plus management software for RAID GUI (graphical user interface).
After driver installation, if desired, install SATA RAID GUI for RAID
management. Before SATA RAID GUI installation, you must remove all
the existing SATA RAID GUI (or Java SATA RAID GUI) to ensure your
new SATA RAID GUI can work properly; i.e.: (\Start\Control Panel\Add
or Remove Programs\Select all SATARaid\Remove).
RAID sets can be created and managed by either the BIOS utility
setting or the SATA RAID GUI setting under Windows.
