I believe the escape sequence is CTRL + C to get into the BIOS. &nbsp;You will probably need the latest drivers on CD to get the OS to recognize the drives.<br />

You should be able to make a disk with one of those.

Hi,<br />
Easy one ...<br />
<br />
Having bought a new xSeris 225, with ServeRaid 6i+ card I need to build my first virtual disk with my 3 x 73GB SCSI's. Can anyone tell me what BIOS keys I press to enter the BIOS, and if I will be able to initalize the disks and create the virtual disk before installing Win2003 on it.<br />
<br />
I'm new to IBM kit, I just want to know if i need a floppy disk to do the above, like was needed on the old PERC cards.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
<br />
Andrew

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
