initialize the hard disk drives. 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.

In the RAID System, use hard disk drives that have the same specifications
(capacity, rotational speed, and standard) for each Disk Array.
