RAID Configuration
Swap Arrays
Use the Swap Two Arrays option to arrange arrays in a different order.
Important
If more than one array is created, install the operating system to any of them.
However, a small amount of boot information is always written to a disk(s) in the first
array (Array 1) of the Array section, regardless on which array the operating system is
installed.
If anything happens to a disk in Array 1, the system might not be able to boot. It is
recommended that the user install the operating system on an AMD-RAID bootable
array at a redundant RAID level such as RAID1 or RAID5 and swap the array into the
first position, if it is not already Array 1.
To swap arrays
1. At the Main Menu, use the arrow keys to highlight Swap Two Array and press
Enter.
