!!! Attention for upgrading KT7-RAID
/ KT7A-RAID BIOS!!!
When you upgrade bios from TL / UL / WT / WW / WZ / YH / ZT to
3C / 3R / 4A / 64 / 7N, we highly recommend you backup your
system and data to an independent storage device first. New HPT 1.11.0402
bios may corrupt original RAID configuration created on old bios occasionally.
That means you may need to rebuild RAID configuration. If it happens,
all the data on RAID-0 will be gone!
For RAID-1 user, please press "CTRL+H" to enter HPT370
setup screen and do "Duplicate Mirror Disk " to recover RAID
system.
