CHAPTER 3
Using the NVIDIA MediaShield RAID Management Utility
Migrating from RAID 0 to RAID 5
The following example shows you how to migrate from a RAID 0 array with two disks to
a RAID 5 array with three disks.
1Go to the system BIOS and make sure that the drives that you want to use are RAID
enabled.
2Boot to Windows, launch the MediaShield application, then follow the steps outlined in
“Creating a Striped Array” on page 47 to create a two disk stripe array.
When that is done, you should see a screen shot similar to the following:

Now that a two disk stripe array has been created, you can use the MediaShield convert
feature to migrate the array from a two-disk RAID 0 into a three-disk RAID 5 array.
