Initializing the physical disks

New physical disks must be converted to RAID capable disks before they can be used. When you convert a disk to a RAID capable disk, the controller configuration information is written to the physical disk.

Physical disks with the following status can be initialized:
  • Non-RAID — A physical disk that was configured by a non-PERC S140.
  • Ready — Contains no stored data but has PERC S140 configuration information.
NOTE: Physical disks that are online cannot be converted to Non-RAID or RAID capable disks.
  1. Enter the BIOS configuration utility. See Entering the BIOS configuration utility.
  2. In the Main Menu field use the arrow keys to select the Initialize Physical Disks option.
  3. Press Enter.
    The Initializing the physical disks screen is displayed.
