       !!! Attention for upgrading KR7A-RAID / KR7A-133R BIOS!!! 

   When you upgrade bios from previous version to 9N, we highly recommend 
   you backup your system and data to an independent storage device first. 
   New HPT 2.31 bios may corrupt original RAID configuration created on 
   old bios occasionally. That means you may need to rebuild RAID 
   configuration. If it happens, all the data on RAID-0 will be gone! 

   For RAID-1 user, please press "CTRL+H" to enter HPT372 setup screen 
   and do "Duplicate Mirror Disk " to recover RAID system.
