Using the Mode Switch
The unit will only set up a RAID or LARGE array if it is currently set for independent drives (Mode Switch set to “Nor”). If an array is defined and a different array setting is desired, the unit must be powered up one time with the Mode Switch set to “Nor” before a new array will be created. Otherwise, simply set the switch to the desired setting and power up the unit. Leave the Mode Switch set to the desired array type.
NOTE: Setting or modifying the mode destroys all data.
Using the JMicron RAID Manager
Windows users may install the JMicron HW RAID Manager application located on the SATA Controller CD, or download it from http://addonics.com/drivers/driver_list.php. In the CD, browse to Configura- tion Utilities → JMB393.
Mac and Linux users may download those versions of the same utility from http://addonics.com/drivers/driver_list.php under “Port Multiplier & Hub.”
The JMicron RAID Manager can be used to monitor the health status of the RAID drives, and provide status alerts with dialog boxes and even email.
Using the JMicron RAID Manager to create or modify an array is NOT recommended. The Mode Switch should be set to the desired type of array at all times to prevent data loss.
