5. The fifth window allows the user to label the volume name, and choose the type of format-

ting to take place upon the creation of the partition. Choose which ever drive letter is

desired (the lowest possible value is automatically entered), name the volume whatever is

desired (suggestions being something generic such as STRIPED SET or something specif-

ic to use such as FINANCIAL, CRITICAL, MISCELLANEOUS, etc.) then check the box

next to “quick format.” Click Next.

6. The sixth window is a summary window listing all of the selections made. Click Finish.

Depending on the size of the disk drive(s) included in the partition, the partition should change from

“Unallocated” to “Healthy” with its name and drive letter reported as well in a matter of minutes or less.

Do not attempt to create a partition for the next disk until the disk currently being formatted is complete

and reports Healthy.

Also note that once the disk reports Healthy, it appears in the listing in SECTION 1 with all of its perti-

nent information as well.

2. Repeat this procedure for the partition of the second and third disk.

3. Close the Data Management window by clicking on the small boxed “X” in the top right corner of

the window.

4. Click on the “My Computer” icon on the Desktop. The three new drives should now be visible and

properly named. Data may now be stored to each of these disks if desired.
