Step 4: Install the RAID Driver During OS Installation
The RAID driver must be installed during the Windows
stallation using the F6 installation method. This is required in order to install the
operating system onto a hard drive or RAID volume when in RAID mode or onto
a hard drive when in AHCI mode.
1. Start Windows Setup by booting from the installation CD.
2. Press <F6> when prompted in the status line with the 'Press F6 if you need
to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver' message.
3. Press <S> to "Specify Additional Device".
4. At this point you will be prompted to insert a floppy disk containing the RAID
driver. Insert the provided RAID driver diskette.
5. Locate for the drive where you inserted the diskette then select RAID or AHCI
controller that corresponds to your BIOS setup. Press <Enter> to confirm.
You have successfully installed the driver. However you must continue installing
the OS. Leave the floppy disk in the floppy drive until the system reboots itself
because Windows setup will need to copy the files again from the floppy disk
to the Windows installation folders. After Windows setup has copied these files
again, remove the floppy diskette so that Windows setup can reboot as needed.
Step 5: Install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager
The Intel Matrix Storage Manager can be installed from within Windows. It allows
RAID volume management (create, delete, migrate) from within the operating
system. It will also display useful SATA device and RAID volume information. The
user interface, tray icon service and monitor service allow you to monitor the
current status of the RAID volume and/or SATA drives. It enables enhanced per-
formance and power management for the storage subsystem.

Storage Manager. Please download the manual from DFI's website. Visit www.dfi.
