4.While holding the RAID setting button, turn on the HPM and SATA hard drives and continue to hold button for at least 5 seconds.

Note:

The onboard LED's for the eSATA and USB will start blinking

 

while holding down the raid setting button. Once the raid

 

setting button is released, the PM Health LED will blink 4-6

 

times.

 

If the PM Health LED stops blinking, the raid set is set

 

correctly. If the PM Health LED lights up as solid green, it is a

 

bad setup. You need to repeat setting up the raid again.

Instruction for Special RAID Modes:

BIG 2 - 2 Drives Spanned

o Note: Do not connect more than 2 SATA drives to the hardware port multiplier. Doing so will hang the system when you configure the raid.

oFor SATA drives with different capacities, the hardware port multiplier will use the smallest drive capacity of the 2 drives connected to create the total partition size.

FAST 2 - 2 Drives Striped

oNote: Do not connect more than 2 SATA drives to the hardware port multiplier. Doing so will hang the system when you configure the raid.

Verify RAID Setting on the HPM
