7. FAQ

If you encounter a problem while using the RAID box, check this section for help.

1. I have connected the ACS-77100 to host computer, but the host computer

cannot recognize the ACS-77100 in BIOS.

The array of the ACS-77100 must be created so that the host computer can recognize the RAID

in BIOS. Please make sure that an array is created.

2. My Operating System is Linux. I have enabled the over 2TB capacity setting, but

I still cannot partition a device over 2TB in OS. Why?

The ACS-77100 is over 2TB available, but most OS still cannot support SATA device to over 2TB.

Please refer to the below list for choosing the OS.

a) Microsoft Windows Vista
