************************************************************

* 4.  DETERMINING THE SYSTEM MODE

************************************************************



To use this Readme effectively, you will need to know what 

mode your system is in. The easiest way to determine the 

mode is to identify how the SATA controller is 

presented within the Device Manager. The following 

procedure will guide you through determining the mode.

1.  On the Start menu, select Control Panel.



In Microsoft Windows XP*:



2.  Double-click 'System' from the Classic View.



3.  Select the 'Hardware' tab.



4.  Click 'Device Manager'.



5.  In the Device Manager window, look for an entry named 

    SCSI and RAID Controllers. If this entry is present, 

    expand it and look for one of the controllers listed 

    in the Overview Section1. If the controller identified is 

    a RAID controller, then the system is in RAID mode.





In Microsoft Windows Vista* or higher:

    

2.  Double-click 'System' from the Classic View (or the 

    small or large icon view in Microsoft Windows 7*).



3.  Select 'Device Manager' in the left pane.



4.  In the Device Manager window, look for an entry named 

    Storage Controllers. If this entry is present, expand it

    and look for one of the controllers listed 

    in the Overview Section1. If the controller identified is 

    a RAID controller, then the system is in RAID mode.







    

    If none of the controllers above are shown, 

    then the system is not running in RAID mode and 

    you should continue with step 6 below.



6.  From the Device Manager, look for an entry named 

    'IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers'. If this entry is present, 

    expand it and look for one of the controllers listed 

    in the Overview Section1. If an AHCI controller is 

    identified, then the system is in AHCI mode.



    If none of the controllers above are shown, then 

    your system is not in AHCI mode. No other modes are  

    supported by Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology 

    and you should continue with step 7 below.



7.  Your system does not appear to be running in RAID or 

    AHCI mode. If you feel that your system is running in 

    RAID or AHCI mode and you do not see any of the 

    controllers listed above, you may choose to contact 

    your system manufacturer or place of purchase for 

    assistance.





************************************************************

* 5.  INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE

************************************************************

* 12.  OPTIONS TO RESET THE RAID VOLUME IN OPTION ROM

************************************************************

Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology - option ROM user interface provides 

two methods for resetting the RAID volume:

1. Delete RAID Volume

2. Reset Disks to Non-RAID

   Differences between the options are noted below. Users are 

   advised to select the option based on the situation.



12.1 Delete RAID Volume



     When a RAID volume is deleted, RAID metadata on the 

     participating disks is erased and sector zero is cleared,

     that is partition table and file system related data are 

     reset. Windows installer will not see any invalid data 

     at the time of OS installation. This is the recommended 

     method for reconfiguring the RAID volume and installing OS 

     on it.



12.2 Reset Disks to Non-RAID



     This option is used to reset the metadata on the disk which 

     participates in more than one RAID volume in single 

     operation. It should be used if 'Delete RAID Volume' option 

     fails for any reason and to reset a disk that has been 

     marked as Spare and offline member. When a disk in the RAID 

     volume is reset to non-RAID, RAID metadata is erased. 

     However, partition table and file system related data still 

     exists, which may be invalid. This might cause Windows 

     installer to misinterpret the information available on the 

     'reset disk' at the time of installation. This could result 

     in unexpected behavior in OS installation.
