disk drives are initialized. If the hard disk drive contains valuable data, be sure to
backup the hard disk drive before installing the RAID Controller and configuring the
RAID System.
Note
In the RAID System, use hard disk drives that have the same specifications (capacity,
rotational speed, and standard) for each Disk Array.
Logical Drives can be created even with only one Physical Device.
