Important message for user

1.Backup all your data in HD before setting any RAID.

2.New HD connecting to RC-200 is recommended to “initial” and “format” before setting a RAID. Otherwise, PC might find nothing in the system.

3.Please read the PDF file of “SATARAID5-UserGuide_v1.40” for basic RAID knowledge.

4.If you want to boot from correct HD either from motherboard HD or RC-200 HD, please change from BIOS “booting sequence”.（ You can download this document from Rosewill website.）

5.If you want to use RC-200 as a un-RAID card, please do not enter the RAID BIOS and set any RAID set at the beginning of booting. You can jump to P13 directly to complete the driver installation. The only different is ignoring the step of RAID setting and the driver setting is the same as a RAID card.
