Introduction
The HP NetRAID-1Si and HP NetRAID-3Si adapters and the integrated
HP NetRAID controllers built into certain HP NetServers let you link multiple
hard disk drives together to write data across them as if they were one large drive
You configure your linked drives in a RAID (redundant array of independent
disks) subsystem.
Initial installation and configuration of HP NetRAID Series adapters is described
in the HP NetRAID Series Installation and Configuration Guide. Initial
