当我父亲告诉我他在Raid 0中运行他的计算机时，我很困惑他为什么想要这样的配置。据我所知，运行Raid配置已经过时且设置复杂。然后我做了我的研究。
在 RAID 配置中运行计算机具有显着优势。最常见的家庭使用突袭配置是 Raid 0 和Raid 1。
Raid 0为您提供更好的性能，因为它专注于将数据均匀地分布在多个驱动器上（而不是使用一个驱动器作为备份），从而显着提高机器的读/写速度。
Raid 1为您提供更好的数据保险，因为它创建了从一个硬盘驱动器到另一个硬盘的精确数据副本，通过备份构建完全冗余。设置您的硬盘驱动器以在Raid配置中运行是基于您的设置的个人决定，您应该决定哪种迭代最适合您。我个人更喜欢Raid 0，因为我优先考虑计算机速度和性能而不是数据安全和冗余。
在开始之前(Before starting)
如果您计划在当前机器上实施 RAID 设置，请确保创建所有数据的备份(backup)，因为在此过程中它会被删除(erased)。您还需要两个独立的闪存驱动器，并为其各自的文件提供足够的空间。
在第一个闪存驱动器上，您需要下载Raid驱动程序。选择您的机器和型号后，您可以在此处(here)找到它们。在第二个闪存驱动器上，您需要下载 Windows ISO。您可以在此处(here)找到该下载链接。
可以将这两个文件安装到一个闪存驱动器上，但有报告称启动期间系统不稳定，所以我不会冒险。让我们开始。
设置 Raid 0 或 Raid 1(Setting up Raid 0 or Raid
1)
我简要提到了Raid每次迭代的好处，但生活中的所有优点，都有各自的缺点。由于Raid 0将您的数据分发到多个驱动器，因此如果单个驱动器发生故障，其他驱动器上的所有数据也将消失。Raid 1的缺点是它比Raid 0慢得多。
话虽如此，Raid 0和Raid 1都非常容易设置，并且需要基本完全相同的设置过程。你要做的第一件事是弄清楚你的主板是否有内置的Raid控制器（大多数现代主板都有）。
从这里你应该：
到达那里后，您的屏幕将如下图所示。从这里您应该导航到
与芯片组(chipset)等效的BIOS。此屏幕将如下所示：
导航到您的芯片组(chipset)后，您
的屏幕将如下所示：
从芯片组屏幕，您应该导航到SATA Mode并选择RAID而不是AHCI。
您现在已经成功地在您的主板上初始化了Raid ；只需点击Save & Exit。此时计算机将重新启动，并尝试启动不再存在的 Windows 副本。
只需按住Ctrl + RCtrl +R启动Raid控制器用户界面（对于AMD，此组合可能会有所不同）。此时您的屏幕应如下所示：
达到这一点后，您应该选择创建阵列(Create Array)，然后选择要用于 raid 配置的驱动器。可用的驱动器将列在Disks(Disks)下的右侧。完成磁盘配置后，使用A或Ins键选择驱动器并按Enter 。
完成此操作后，您的屏幕将如下所示：
从这里您可以决定要选择的配置。我个人选择了Raid 0，但选择权在你。在此之后，您将选择要构建的数组的大小。
我只是为我的 RAID 驱动器保留了使用所有可用空间(All Available Space)的默认设置。在此之后您将选择缓存模式，我保留了默认的缓存系统Read/Write。这看起来像这样：
根据您的喜好对其进行配置后，只需按C即可创建您的阵列。按Esc和Y以使用新的Raid配置重新启动系统。
重新启动后，导航回BIOS并为启动磁盘选择新的 RAID 配置。在点击保存并退出(Save & Exit)之前，您的屏幕应如下所示：
完成此操作后，您的机器将再次重新启动。让它完成正常的启动过程。它会提示您驱动程序错误，此时您的屏幕应如下所示：
如果您还没有这样做，请插入包含您的Raid 驱动程序(Raid Drivers)的闪存驱动器和包含您的Windows ISO的闪存驱动器，导航到存储驱动程序的驱动器和文件夹，然后点击OK。您的屏幕应如下所示：
选择安装所需的驱动程序，然后单击Next。完成此操作后，您的屏幕将提示您选择要安装新Windows 10 操作系统(Operating)的驱动器，然后再次单击下一步(Next)。您的屏幕将如下所示：
您的操作系统现在将开始安装。从这里开始，您应该完全设置为您选择的任何 RAID 配置（0 或 1）。如果您有任何问题，或者如果您需要对流程的特定部分进行进一步详细说明，请告诉我，我会立即回复您！

How to Install and Configure Raid Drives (Raid 0 and 1) on Your PC
When my father told me that he was running his computer іn Raid 0, I was confused as to why he would want sυch a configuratіon. To my knowledge, running a Raid configuration was outdated and complicated to set up. Then I did my research.
There are significant advantages to running your computer in a raid configuration. The most common raid configurations for home use are Raid 0 and Raid 1.
Raid 0 gives you better performance, as it focuses on distributing data evenly on multiple drives (instead of using one drive as a backup), significantly increasing read/write speeds of your machine.
Raid 1 gives you better data insurance, as it creates an exact copy of data from one hard drive to another, constructing full redundancy through backups. Setting up your hard drives to run in a Raid configuration is a personal decision based on your setup and you should decide which iteration is best for you. I personally prefer Raid 0, because I prioritize computer speed and performance over data security and redundancy.
Before starting
If you’re planning on implementing a raid setup on your current machine, make sure you create a backup of all of your data, as it will be erased in the process. You will also need Two separate flash drives with enough space for their respective files.
On the first flash drive you will need to download the Raid drivers. You can find those here after you select your machine and model. On the second flash drive you will need to download the windows ISO. You can find that download link here.
It’s possible to install both files to a single flash drive but there have been reports of system instability during startup, so I wouldn’t risk it. Let’s begin.
Setting up Raid 0 or Raid
1
I briefly mentioned the benefits of each iteration of Raid, but with all advantages in life, come their respective disadvantages. Since Raid 0 distributes your data to multiple drives, if a single drive fails, all of the data on the other drives will be gone as well. The disadvantage of Raid 1 is that it’s significantly slower than Raid 0.
That being said, Raid 0 and Raid 1 are both super easy to set up and require basically the exact same setup process. The first thing you’re going to want to do is figure out if your motherboard has a built in Raid controller (most modern motherboards do).
From here you should:
- Connect
the drives you want to use
- Boot
up the machine into the BIOs
Once you’re there your screen will
look like the one in the picture below. From here you should navigate to your
BIOS equivalent of the chipset. This screen will look something like
this:
After navigating to your chipset
your screen will look like this:
From the chipset screen, you should
navigate to SATA Mode and select RAID instead of AHCI.
You have now successfully initialized Raid on your motherboard; simply hit Save & Exit. The computer will restart at this point and will attempt to launch a copy of windows that isn’t there anymore.
Simply press and hold Ctrl + R to launch the Raid controller user interface (Ctrl +R for AMD, this combo may vary for your setup). At this point your screen should look something like this:
After reaching this point you
should select Create Array then select the drives you want to use for
the raid configuration. The drives available will be listed on the right-hand
side under Disks. Use the A or Ins key to select the
drives and hit enter when you’re finished configuring the disks.
After
you’ve done this your screen will look like this:
From here you can decide which configuration you want to select. I personally selected Raid 0 but the choice is yours. After this you will choose the size of the array you want to build.
I just kept the default setting of using All Available Space for my raid drives. After this you will select the caching mode, I have kept the default caching system Read/Write. This will look something like this:
After configuring it to your liking simply press C to create your array. Press Esc and Y to restart your system with your new Raid configuration.
After rebooting, navigate back to
your BIOS and select your new raid configuration for the boot disk. Before
hitting Save & Exit Your screen should look something like this:
After doing this your machine will restart again. Allow it to go through the normal startup process. It will prompt you of a driver error at which point your screen should look like this:
If you haven’t done so already, plug
in the flash drive that contains your Raid Drivers and the flash drive
that contains your Windows ISO, navigate to the drive and folder where
the driver is stored and hit OK. Your screen should look like this:
Select the drivers you need for the installation then click on Next. After doing this your screen will prompt you to select the drive you want to install your new Windows 10 Operating system on then click on Next again. Your screen will look like this:
Your operating system will now begin installing. From here, you should be completely set up in whichever raid configuration (0 or 1) you chose. If you have any questions or if you need further elaboration on a specific part of the process let me know and I will get back to you immediately!
Enjoy the world of redundant arrays of independent disks (RAID).
