Note
Before adding a new drive to an array, back up any data contained on the
new drive. Otherwise, all data will be lost.
A RAID 1 created using the Quick Init option may return some data
miscompares if you later run a consistency check. This is normal and is not
a cause for concern.
The Adaptec RAID Configuration Utility allows you to use drives of different
sizes in a RAID 1. If you choose the smaller drive as the second drive, you
will be warned about the risk of data loss.
Warning
Do not interrupt the creation of a RAID 0 using the Migrate option. If you
do, there is no way to restart and no way to recover the data that was on
the source drive.
When you are finished, press
Done
