Installation Issues
(Capacity, Booting)
Q: Why are some drives recognized by the FastTrak S150 SX4 and SX4000 /
SX4000 Lite Array Setup utilities with only partial capacity?
A: Some hard drives ship with a jumper that reduces the addressable capacity
of the drive to prevent problems with older systems that dont support larger
drives. Consult your hard drive documentation to set the jumper so that you
can use the full capacity of the drive.
Q: How can I change the system boot sequence in order to boot from the
FastTrak S150 SX4 or SX4000 / SX4000 Lite array?
A: The boot sequence is controlled by the system BIOS. As far as the system
BIOS is concerned, the FastTrak Controller and defined arrays are
categorized as a SCSI device. This allows you to set the boot sequence in
your BIOS setup utility to boot from SCSI first, rather than IDE.
If there are multiple SCSI add-in controllers in the system, then the boot
sequence among them will be determined exclusively by their PCI slot
priority. PCI slot #1 will be first, slot #2 second, etc. Put the FastTrak
Controller in the PCI slot where it will be accessed ahead of other SCSI
controllers if you want to boot from the array.
Q: How can I change the boot sequence between a PCI SCSI card and the
FastTrak S150 SX4 or SX4000 / SX4000 Lite RAID array?
A: Since all PCI devices are PnP, it is difficult to determine which device is
addressed first. Some newer motherboard BIOSes have advanced options
that identify devices and allow you to select which device will be assigned
resources first. Otherwise you may have to physically switch the device
cards on the PCI slots so that the boot device is in the highest priority slot
number (see previous question).
Post-Installation
Q: Why can’t I see the drives on the FastTrak S150 SX4 or SX4000 / SX4000
Lite under FDISK?
A: You have not created an array yet. If no array has been created, the system
will not recognize drive(s) attached to the FastTrak Controller.
Q: How can I obtain the latest FastTrak drivers?
A: Download the latest drivers from the Promise Technology website at
www.promise.com
