5.4.1 Installing the Hard Disks
The RAID 0 setting allows users to reformat two hard disks with the same new OS
simultaneously. RAID 1 arrays can use a pre-existing hard disk along with a blank
hard disk, or two new hard disks.
1. Install the first and second hard disk into the hard disk bays of your system.
Connect each hard disk drive with a separate UltraDMA/100 cable, one to the
Primary ATA IDE1 connector, and the other to the Secondary ATA IDE2 connector
onboard the A7V266-E.
2. Connect the power cables to the hard disks.
3. Ensure that the ATA/100 / RAID 0/1 jumper 3 is reset from the default: [1-2] to
the RAID 0/1 setting: [2-3].
