RAID configuration utilities
RAID option for the Altos G330 Mk2 system is provided through either
the onboard SATA controller or through a controller board option (LSI
MegaRAID SAS RAID controller).
Caution: Creating a RAID volume erases all data previously saved
in the hard drives. Make sure that you back up important files
before starting a RAID configuration process.
