SATA RAID Setup Procedure (Windows 8)
To configure your RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) system in Strip-
ing (RAID 0) or Mirroring (RAID 1) modes (see
Table 7 - 1, on page 7 - 3 ) you will
require at least two identical (see sidebar) hard disks.
Note that the RAID setup in Windows 8 differs from that outlined for Windows7.
You need to setup a RAID before installing your Windows 8 operating system, and
you will need to prepare the following in order to do so.
1. The Microsoft Windows 8 OS DVD.
2. A hard disk installed in the Primary HDD bay.
3. A second (identical) hard disk installed in the Secondary HDD bay.
4. The Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s Manual disc.
5. A USB flash drive.
6. An operable computer (to copy files from the Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s
Manual disc to the USB flash drive).
Before setting up the system you will need to copy a driver folder to a USB flash
drive or external USB hard disk. This driver folder is included on the Device Drivers
& Utilities + User’s Manual disc but you will need to go to an operable computer
and copy the folder to a USB Flash drive or external USB hard disk.
