Erasing RAID Configuration Data
This topic describes the procedure to erase RAID configuration data (if any) on a foreign physical disk.
Note: The RAID controller stores RAID configuration data on all physical disks that are part of a virtual disk. RAID configuration data must be erased on the physical disk before it can be used with another virtual disk.
