Chapter 8. Configuring Units
Unlocking Drives Configured on a 9500S
Controller
When drives are configured into a unit on a 9500S controller, they become
locked for use with 9500S series controllers.
If you want to use these drives on an older 3ware controller, a non-3ware
controller, or connect them directly to a motherboard ATA controller, you
must first unlock them.
You can unlock drives in the following ways:
R26;
In 3BM (3ware BIOS Manager), highlight the unit you want to unlock,
and press the r key (for remove). Then shut down the system.
R26;
In either 3BM or 3DM, delete the unit, as described under "Deleting a
Unit" on page 157. All data on the drives will be permanently deleted,
and the drives will be unlocked.
R26;
Boot to the operating system. Put a file system on the unit by formatting and partitioning it. Shut down the operating system cleanly. The drives will be unlocked
