Setting Up and Using Your Computer
Rebuilding a Degraded RAID 1 Volume

®
Matrix Storage
Manager → Intel Matrix Storage Console to launch the Intel ®
Matrix
Storage Manager.
2 Right-click the available hard drive to which you want to rebuild the RAID 1
volume, and click Rebuild to this Disk.
3 You can use your computer while the computer is rebuilding the RAID 1
volume.
Transferring Information to a New Computer
You can use your operating system "wizards" to help you transfer files and
other data from one computer to another—for example, from an old
computer to a new computer. For instructions, see the following section that
corresponds to the operating system your computer is running.
Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP
The Microsoft Windows XP operating system provides the Files and Settings
Transfer Wizard to move data from a source computer to a new computer.
You can transfer data, such as:
• E-mail messages
• Toolbar settings
• Window sizes
• Internet bookmarks
You can transfer the data to the new computer over a network or serial
connection, or you can store it on removable media, such as a writable CD,
for transfer to the new computer.
