(To ensure that your IDE CD-ROM drive can work properly, please connect it to the IDE port that is controlled by the Southbridge, not the GigaRAID controller). Then connect the power connector from your power supply to the hard drive(s). "*" Skip this step if you do not want to create RAID array on the IDE controller IDE RAID Drives Configuration (GigaRAID) -2- (2) Configuring GigaRAID controller mode and boot sequence in BIOS Setup You have to make sure whether the GigaRAID controller are configured correctly in system BIOS Setup and set BIOS boot sequence for the IDE RAID hard drive(s).

Block Size: If you select to create RAID 0 (Striping) or RAID 0+1 (Striping+Mirroring), you have to specify the block size. The block size options include 1KB, 2KB, 4KB, 8KB, 16KB, 32KB and 64KB. Assignment: Use the ARROW keys to move to the Assignment section of the desired hard drive and press SPACEBAR to change the Assignment option to Y. This action adds the drive to the RAID set. To successfully create a RAID array, you need to set at least two hard drives to Y status. You will see that the Drive No section displays the number of hard drives that are labeled with Y. Next, if you are sure to erase the old data in the hard drive, press Y to confirm (or N to cancel). Now, you should see "Functional" in the Status section, which indicates the RAID array is operational. Press ESC to return to the Define RAID Menu and you should see the functional RAID set (refer to Figure 9 on next page).
