Device mapping order ======================== The device mapping order in system is same as BIOS setting utility. The disk marked as "BOOT" will always be mapped as first SCSI disk. Please keep it in mind when installing Windows NT/2K/XP, otherwise OS may be installed to wrong location. 5. Known Problems ================== * Install OS to devices attached to RocketRAID 1640 controller Before installing OS to devices attached to RocketRAID 1640 controller, you must remove the drives connected to other controllers from your system temporarily. After OS installation complete, you can put them back. * Device driver update Since RocketRAID 1640 Controller is a dual-function PCI controller, when updating the driver, you must update it for both functions following their order as being shown in Windows device manager. * Moving disks to other controllers When you want to use disks previously attached to RocketRAID 1640 controller on other controllers, please first delete any array information on the disks. Otherwise your data may be lost when you want to put it back later.
