Questions answered in Guide manuals
How do I create a RAID 0 array on an ASRock motherboard?
Enter the BIOS Setup Utility, enable RAID mode, go to RAID Disk Configuration, highlight the Striping (RAID 0) option and press <Enter> to create the array.
From: ASRock SATA Hard Disk Installation and RAID Configuration Guide
Do I need a driver diskette to install Windows on SATA with RAID enabled?
A driver diskette is required only if you plan to install Windows with RAID functions; it is not needed for a non‑RAID installation.
From: ASRock SATA Hard Disk Installation and RAID Configuration Guide
What stripe size should I choose for RAID 0?
You can select a stripe size between 8 KB and 128 KB; 128 KB is the default and gives the best performance for most desktops and workstations.
From: Intel SATA Hard Disk Installation and RAID Configuration Guide
Is RAID 0 fault‑tolerant?
No, RAID 0 improves performance but provides no fault tolerance; a disk failure will cause data loss.
From: Intel SATA Hard Disk Installation and RAID Configuration Guide
How do I create a RAID volume with Intel Matrix Storage Manager?
Open the Intel Matrix Storage Console, choose Create RAID Volume, enter a volume name, select the RAID level and strip size, then select source and member disks and finish the wizard.
Will data on the selected disks be kept after creating a RAID volume?
No, the existing data on the selected hard disks will be deleted; you must back up your data before proceeding.
