Making Drives Visible to the Operating

System

By default, if you leave individual drives unconfigured, they will not be

available to the operating system. If you want to be able to use individual

drives, configure them as single-disk units.

Checking the Motherboard Boot Sequence

Using your computer’s BIOS setup utility, ensure that it shows the appropriate

boot devices.

After installing the 3ware controller in your system, go into the BIOS for your

computer system to check and change the boot order. The new controller is

usually added as a boot device after previously existing boot devices. You can

move it up in the list, if appropriate. Refer to the documentation for your

system for information about starting the system BIOS.

• If the OS is already installed on a unit connected to the system, be

sure that device precedes the 3ware RAID controller in the boot sequence.

If you have other disks installed on the motherboard, the 3ware RAID

controller should precede them in boot order.

• If you will install your OS on a disk or unit attached to the 3ware

RAID controller, specify the controller as the boot device. In 3BM, the

unit listed at the top on the 3BM main page will be the boot unit. You can

change the order by highlighting a unit and pressing the PgUp or PgDn

key. (Note that if you configured more than one unit, the drive(s)

specified as Unit 0 will be treated as the boot disk.)

What Next?

The final steps in setting up your RAID units are to load the 3ware driver and

make the units available to your operating system. For details, turn to

Chapter 4, “Driver Installation.”

After installing the driver, in order to maintain your RAID units, you may also

want to install 3ware’s browser-based Disk Management tool, 3DM 2, or the

3ware Command Line Interface (CLI). For more information, see

Appendix B, “Software Installation” on page 310.
