Use the arrow keys to move between the various drives (usually Disk 0 and Disk 1). The and will

select various partitions on each Disk. You should see each physical drive or drives on the system with

drive sizes and partition sizes.

Adding another hard disk

When adding another hard disk drive there are some additional steps necessary before loading software.

Physically install the new hard drives in the drive bay available in the rack/tower chassis. Use the special

shouldered #6 screws to mount in the internal drive bay.

The disk drive should have a SATA interface. Use a SATA data cable and plug into the next available

SATA3 port on the Main board (blue connectors). Connect the SATA Power cable to the drive with the

yellow wire to the outside edge of the drive. Once a drive is installed, on power up you must reconfigure

the BIOS Drive Boot order. This model motherboard selects SATA3 drives first, then SATA2 drives.

Usually you want to boot from the fastest SATA3 drive in your system as 1

boot Drive.

Configure the new drive by either:

a. Manually allocating the drive partitions and format each partition.

b. Do an Acronis partition restore of a recent backup to the new hard disk primary active

partition to make it bootable.

c. See the “Restoring the AM-9000 Wes7 Boot Partition”.

Once you add a new drive to the system that is not formatted, it will be displayed in the lower panel with

a Black Bar. First, we must allocate a partition.
