Caution
•Before installation of the controller card we recommend that users study this manual first. This RAID manual has more information on RAID architecture, RAID features, RAID installation, RAID settings and Management software for the RAID5 GUI (Graphical User Interface).
•Windows Device Manager cannot recognize hard drives without the correct RAID settings in place.
•The working data on your existing hard drive may NOT work when you migrate it to a RAID Host Card configuration.
•After driver installation you can install the SATARAID5 GUI for RAID management. Before the
SATARAID5 GUI installation, you must remove all existing SATARAID GUIs (or Java SATARAID GUI) to ensure your new SATARAID5 GUI works without issues.
•RAID sets can be created and managed by either the BIOS utility setting or the SATARAID5 GUI setting under Windows.
