CAUTION: After a format is started it cannot be paused or cancelled.
To begin the format, press F.
The formatting procedure sets the sector size to 512 bytes, even if the drive was previously formatted to
another sector size. This is the only sector size that the SAS BIOS configuration utility supports on RAID
volumes.

(Yes, No, All, nonE, Cancel)
The reassignment options are as follows:

again.
• No—Do not reassign this block. If another block must be reassigned in the future, display the prompt
again.
• All—Reassign the current block, and automatically reassign other blocks that must be reassigned,
without displaying the prompt again.
• nonE—Do not reassign the current block, and do not automatically reassign any other blocks that
must be reassigned. Do not display the prompt again.
• Cancel—Do not reassign any blocks and stop the verify process.
