Netware 5.1/6.0 Promise FastTrak S150 TX Series/378/TX4000 Controller Driver

**WARNING**
-  If "SYS" volume was created on the disk drive of our adapter, during the
   RAID rebuilding or checking integrity, we suggest that don't load any module 
   until duplication completed, and unload driver "FastTrak.ham" first if you need 
   to DOWN the server at that time. The reason of the suggestion is to avoid 
   system wait the critical periods causes server time out. This is because our driver
   will prevent all real mode access during critical periods.

-  If you create or delete array disk by driver utility (FastTrak SNMP) on existing 
   array disk, after doing the operation, you will have to reload (unload then load) 
   the driver to make the new array status update and function for your server.
