Recovering From a Multiple Hard Drive Failure Using the Intel
®
RAID
Option ROM Utility
NOTE: The following steps will not restore any data lost during the hard drive
failure. It can be performed only after the failed hard drives have been replaced
(see the appropriate Drives section for your system).
Although hard drives of any size may be combined to create a RAID
configuration, the drives should ideally be of equal size when using the Intel
RAID Option ROM utility. In a RAID level 1 configuration, the size of the
configuration will be equivalent to the smaller of the two drives used.
