4.5 Creating a RAID driver disk

A oppy disk with the RAID driver is required when installing Windows

XP operating system

on a hard disk drive that is included in a RAID set. For Windows

Vista or later operating

systems, use either a oppy disk or a USB ash drive with the RAID driver.

USB oppy disk drive when creating a SATA RAID driver disk.

• Windows

XP may not recognize the USB oppy disk drive due to Windows

limitation. To work around this OS limitation, refer to section 4.5.4 Using a USB

oppy disk drive.
