There are two system drives installed in the AS3000, as shown in the following illustration.

AS3000 System Drives

The two drives are mirrored and are accessible from the front of the AS3000. If you have a

failure on either one of the two system drives you can pull the failed drive out of the server and

install a replacement without turning off the server. The Avid AS3000 continues to run properly

if one of the two system drives are removed.

To replace a single failed system drive:

1. Locate the Intel Rapid Storage Technology Application as follows:

Start>Programs>Intel>Intel Rapid Storage Technology

2. Click to start the application. The following illustration shows the Intel Rapid Storage

Technology window.
