The
Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) application supports Models 742,
782, 723, 743, and 783 with one or two hard disk drives and the Microsoft Windows
operating system. RAID provides an error message should one of the two hard disk
drives experience a failure (see Figure 1).
Determining a hard drive failure
When the RAID program indicates a hard drive failure, you can determine which
drive has failed using one of the following two methods:
Method one: Clicking on the RAID icon
1. From the Microsoft Windows task bar, click on the RAID icon. This icon only is
present during an array rebuilding or if abnormal activity occurred, such as a
failed drive. The Intel Storage Utility opens.
