CHAPTER 3
Using the NVIDIA MediaShield RAID Management Utility
Migrating from RAID 0+1 to RAID 0
The following example shows you how to convert from a RAID 0+1 array with four disks
to a RAID 0 array with four 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 Stripe Mirroring Array” on page 54 to create a four-disk mirrored stripe
array. When that is done, you should see a screen shot similar to the following:
Figure 3.88 RAID Array Created
Now that a four-disk mirrored stripe array has been created, you can use the
MediaShield convert feature to migrate the array from a four-disk RAID 0+1 into a
four-disk RAID 0 array.
