Press Space key to select the second drive. The prompt "Data on RAID Drives will be deleted (Y/N)?" appears after two drives are properly assigned. Press Y, and then some necessary information will be written to the drives, which will destroy the original data in the drives.
Make sure the data in drives is no longer in use before creating RAID 0.
