SATA RAID configuration utilities
Altos G330 supports onboard SATA RAID from both Intel and LSI SATA RAID functions. You need to enable either function in the BIOS Setup Utility before you can configure a SATA RAID volume.
Caution: Creating a RAID volume erases all data previously saved in the hard drives. Make sure that you back up important files before starting a RAID configuration process.
Note: For OS installation procedures, refer to the user documentation that came with your OS pack.
