Creating a Stripe Volume
With Windows 2000, the disks in a stripe volume must be dynamic disks.
Since disks are not usually shipped in this format, you may need to upgrade
your disks before you can stripe them. The Disk Manager in the Computer
Management console automatically detects whether your disks need to be
upgraded to dynamic disks.
To upgrade to dynamic disks
1. Right-click on My Computer and choose Manage.
The Computer Management console is displayed.
2. Use the tree (left) to navigate to Storage > Disk Management.
If the disks in your storage array are not dynamic, the Write Signature and
Upgrade Disk Wizard is displayed.
If you attempt to create a stripe volume from non-Avid drives, Avid
makes no representation that the stripe volume will perform to Avid
specifications for your application or sequence. Consequently,
Avid|DS Customer Service will not be able to support any system
issues caused by the non-Avid drives or the stripe volume.
