!!!Attention for upgrading BIOS!!! * When you upgrade bios to new bios included HPT 2.31 bios, we highly recommend
you backup your system and data to an independent storage device first. New HPT
2.31 bios may corrupt original RAID configuration created on old bios
occasionally. That means you may need to rebuild RAID configuration. If it
happens, all the data on RAID-0 will be gone!
* For RAID-1 user, please press "CTRL+H" to enter hpt37x setup.
*Please upgrade HPT 2.31 driver before upgrade bios.
