Driver Installation Under Windows
The 3ware RAID controller can be used with Windows Server 2003 (SP2 or
newer), Windows 2008, Windows 2008 R2, Vista, and Windows 7, with both
the 32-bit and 64-bit versions. It is recommended that you upgrade to the
latest service pack available.
A drive or unit managed by the 3ware RAID controller may be configured to
be your system’s boot device. Or, you can use units managed by the 3ware
controller for secondary storage and boot from another device, such as a disk
attached to the motherboard, or other bootable media.
This section contains instructions for how to:
•
Create a driver disk for the 3ware RAID controller.
•
Install the 3ware driver and Windows on a new drive or unit.
Note:
Before installing the 3ware driver, you may want to physically install your
3ware RAID controller in the system.
Consult the installation guide that came with your controller for how to do this. If you
do not have a hardcopy of the installation manual, it is available in the “doc” folder
on your 3ware CD, or you can download it from the LSI website at
