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 26
Manufacturer when using an intel extreme edition cpu 130w 26
To meet expansion requirements it is recommended that a power supply that can withstand 26
Use of a power supply providing a 2x4 12v power connector is recommended by the cpu 26
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 26

Inthenotificationarea whichwillshowthataraidvolumeisbeing 108
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 108
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 108
The following screen appears indicating that an automatic rebuild will be performed after you enter the operating system look for the intel rapid storage technology icon 108

Restoring the master drive to a previous state for recovery volume only when two hard drives are set to recovery volume in update on request mode you can restore the master drive data to the last backup state when needed for example in case the master drive detects a virus you can restore the recovery drive data to the master drive 110
