C. Rebuilding an Array

Rebuilding is the process of restoring data to a hard drive from other drives in the array. Rebuilding applies only

to fault-tolerant arrays such as RAID 1 arrays. The procedures below assume a new drive is added to replace a

failed drive to rebuild a RAID 1 array. (Note: The new drive must have equal or greater capacity than the old one.)

For the GIGABYTE SATA2:

Turn off your computer and replace the failed hard drive with a new one. Use either the RAID setup utility or

the GIGABYTE RAID CONFIGURER utility in the operating system to perform the rebuild.

• Rebuilding with the RAID setup utility

Step 1:

When the message "Press <Ctrl-G> to enter RAID Setup Utility" appears, press <Ctrl> + <G> to enter the util-

ity. In the Main Menu block, select Rebuild Mirror Drive and press <Enter>. The selection bar will move to

the degraded array. Press <Enter> again.

Step 2:

The selection bar will then move to new hard drive in the Hard Disk Drive List block. Press <Enter> to start

the RAID rebuilding process. The rebuilding progress is displayed at the bottom of the screen. When done,

the status of the array will display as Normal.
