- High power consumption be used 500w or greater if a power supply is used that does not provide the required power the result can lead to an unstable or unbootable system 22
- Manufacturer when using an intel extreme edition cpu 130w 22
- To meet expansion requirements it is recommended that a power supply that can withstand 22
- Use of a power supply providing a 2x4 12v power connector is recommended by the cpu 22
- With the use of the power connector the power supply can supply enough stable power to all the com ponentsonthemotherboard beforeconnectingthepowerconnector firstmakesurethepowersupply is turned off and all devices are properly installed the power connector possesses a foolproof design connect the power supply cable to the power connector in the correct orientation the 12v power con nector mainly supplies power to the cpu if the 12v power connector is not connected the computer will not start 22

- Rebuilding is the process of restoring data to a hard drive from other drives in the array rebuilding applies only to fault tolerant arrays such as raid 1 raid 5 or raid 10 arrays the procedures below assume a new drive is added to replace a failed drive to rebuild a raid 1 array note the new drive must have equal or greater capacity than the old one 112
- Rebuilt if you do not enable automatic rebuild on this stage you have to manually rebuild the array in the operating system see the next page for more details 112
