With the built in RAID controller when the machine is booting up hit the
Ctrl+C to start the LSI Logic Configuration Utiltiy.

This link explains the different screens and how to configure the
striping and mirroring.

It was very simple to setup.

Below is my original question

I have a new X4200 with 4 internal drives.
I haven't worked with this hardware before but it appears there is an
internal RAID controller that can be used to strip and mirror the
internal drives. I can't find any documentation on how to do this.

In the past I've used SUN's Disksuite to strip and mirror the internal
drives but if this has a hardware RAID controller I'd like to use that.

Has anyone done this on an X4200 before or can point me to some docs.

Thank you.
