Press Space key to select the second drive. The prompt "Create RAID 1 (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.

It is recommended to use new drives to create RAID 1. If existing drive is to be used, backup all necessary data before creating RAID 1.

Next, the Array Name input line appears for the user to key in a name for the newly created array. The effective characters for an array name is 0-9, A-Z, a-z, space and underscore.

Lastly a prompt message "Duplicate Data from M to m (Y/N)?" asks whether to do drive copy. The source and target drives are indicated by "M" and "m" in Drive Select Menu respectively. Pressing Y will duplicate the data in source drive to the target drive. Make sure the source drive is the correct one. If you press N, then the data is inconsistent in two drives.
