How can I configure raid 1?

I have a HP m9340f, and the 750 GB seagate drive that accompanies it is eventually died. Of course, I don't have any image or to clone, so now I have to re - install all my nonsense.

In diagnosing the drive, I discovered that the bios has raid capability. In fact, that's what the reader has been set on (although there was still only 1 disc). I've never used raid, so my question is, if I want to configure raid 1, so that the next time a drive dies, I have a built-in backup, what exactly do I do? I know that I need to install 2 hard drives, but as soon as I did this, raid configure automatically? I don't see any special properties in the screens of the bios for raid, except for access to the drive (ide/raid/AHCI). Would this be a good idea to use seagate disks, or cares not the bios?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello bassman952, maybe I can offer a glimpse of the Raid arrays. Many Members here know this already, but for those who do not, it seems that your system is capable of Raid. It has the Intel G33 chipset, where specifications for this chipset can be found here. This chipset includes the Raid feature for most Raid array configurations. However, HP changed the BIOS to only supported Bay Raid0 and Raid1. A Raid0 array consist usually of 2 hard drives and recommend that be of the same manufacturer, model, capacity, speed and cache. It is possible to use different brands and other specifications of the hard drive, but it is strongly discouraged. A Raid1 array also usually consist of 2 hard drives with the same configuration as described above. All Raid arrays must be installed before all the data is stored on the table.  To configure a matrix Raid on the chipset Intel, immediately after the HP Logo screen disappears, press ctrl and the I touch both and the Intel Matrix Raid Array utility will appear. You can then configure matrix Raid type and disk to be included in this table, save the configuration and exit. The table written Raid0 and bed for two drives at the same time, but with different data. This is referred to as a matrix of blocks. The Raid1 array is referred to as a network of mirrors. If one of the disks in Raid0 array were to fail, all data on both drives would be lost. The Raid1 array reads and writes the same data on two drives in the Raid array at the same time. If one of the disks were to fail, a new hard drive can be installed to replace the failed drive and the system booted and the Raid1 array will be rebuilt, which means that the data from the hard drive of existing work will be copied to the new hard disk. Depending on the capacity of the hard disk and the speed of the system, it can take a good amount of time to accomplish. After that the Raid1 array is rebuilt, the system should boot normally. Table of Raid0 is mainly used for performance while the Raid1 array is used mainly as a redundant to the first hard drive backup. If a Raid array is broken, which means that the configuration of the table is changed, all data on the hard disks will be lost, even in the Raid1 array. Can I have left some items, since I'm trying to remember this memory, but this is essentially how HP uses Raid arrays in their use of home systems. Others use Raid arrays that are different, such as Raid5 and Raid10, Raid0 + 1 and some other Raid configurations, but since we are talking about the Raid arrays on HP systems, other table Raid differences would be not useful for the discussion here.

    How can I configure on a second two-factor authentication apple that isn't an icloud but rather my itunes account account ID? Only, I seem to be able to use two steps on the second account.

    You can not. Two Apple factor authentication is a feature of iOS and OS X, based on your AppleID being associated with iCloud account to send and receive authentication 6-digit codes. An AppleID that is not associated with iCloud account cannot be used for 2-factor authentication.

  • How can I configure the cell data format

    How can I configure data format of cell numbers: for example, I want to capture 123456.78 and need to be 12A3456.78?

    I tried to put #A # #. # format option, but it didn't work a few time and it became A123456.78.

    I also tried on excel and it worked very well, but I like the numbers better. is there a solution to this problem?

    Thank you

    HEY Chi - Lun,

    I don't think that this is possible as many number format. You should be able to insert A in a text string using a formula, but this would happen in a second cell, not that the number has been entered.

    "Assuming all the"numbers require the same inserted letter after the second number, this should do the work."number" entered in column A; the formula in column B. In the table below, your value as an example is A6.

    = Left (A, 2) & "A" & RIGHT (A, LEN (A) - 2)

    Kind regards

  • How can I configure my Mozilla Thunderbird to me for new confirmed before leaving?

    I used to use Microsoft outlook. In outlook, we use the button 'close' at the top right of a mail to close this letter.
    In thunderbird, this 'x' is available on the top somewhere in the middle.

    To close a mail, I click on the upper right corner by mistake and the release of Thunderbird (which I didn't) by mistake.

    How can I configure my Mozilla Thunderbird to me for new confirmed before leaving?

    As far as I can see there is no easy way to do this. However, an easy option is to have the Thunderbird in the system tray on hitting the close instead of closing button. The add-on "Minimize on start and close" for Thunderbird accomplishes this mission and to close all what you need to do is right-click on the icon in the taskbar, and then click close to close actually it. I hope this helps.

  • How can I configure mobile android password manager copy all of my passwords from firefox to my office?

    How can I configure my new mobile password manager for my android phone copy all of my passwords from firefox to my office?
    Right now, I noticed there is only about 8 passwords listed.
    But my office saved password manager has about 50 listed.
    This makes me think that the android app is to choose only to remember what I saved directly with my android. I want to capture all my saved passwords from my desktop also.
    I tried recheck my firefox sync options, but only confirmed that I don't have this game automatically synchronize all my data (including passwords.)

    I found that I have to press the 'Menu' (three horizontal lines in a square) in the mobile view and connect until I'm able to meet Firefox on Android.

    Now that you're on your desktop: try passwords uncheck in synchronization preferences, wait a few seconds, then check again. Then on your phone, the settings of the open Android app, accounts & sync, choose your Firefox Sync account, then Menu > sync now.

  • Satellite A200-1AE: How can I configure the settings of buttons Dual Mode Pad?

    Hello

    I recently bought a Satellite A200-1AE. I tried to configure the default first button on my touch pad (lower left) so that I can fire up MSWord, but it did not work.

    Now every time I have set the mode button and press this button, that nothing not to pass - I lost practically this button.

    My question is how can I configure the mode button on the touch pad settings? Even if I was able to start a program by using the 3 buttons how can I modify these programs?

    Thanks for your help!

    p.s. I read the extended version of the manual for my laptop. There is no explanation of my problem - it says I should look "Synaptics Dual Mode Pad properties.

    I don't know where are these properties.

    Hello

    It s is not so difficult as you think, the properties of the synaptics are in the "mouse properties" of your "Control Panel" of windows. When you reach the 'mouse', then click on the "Advanced" tab and you should find a button 'Advanced functionality settings'.
    It could be that the button is not named as mine, but it must be identical.
    After clicking on it, you should look for this 'easy' Launcher in one of the tabs.

    I think that you will make it, but I'd like some feedback from you.
