RAID configuration utilities

RAID option for the Altos G540 system is provided through either the 
onboard SATA controller or through an external controller board 
option (LSI 1068 SAS controller or LSI MegaRAID SAS RAID controller). 

Caution:  Creating a RAID volume erases all data previously saved 
in the hard drives.  Make sure that you back up important files 
before starting a RAID configuration process.
