computer, then plug the AC power cord into an outlet, and connect
the AC power cord to the AC/DC adapter.

System Software

Your computer may already come with system software pre-
installed. Where this is not the case, or where you are re-con-
figuring your computer for a different system, you will find
this manual refers to Microsoft Windows 8.
HDD RAID Support
Your hard disk(s) can be set up in AHCI mode or RAID
mode (for increased performance or protection). Note that
setting up your hard disk(s) in RAID mode needs to be done
prior to installing the Windows OS. Do not change the mode
unless you intend to reinstall your operating system, and
make sure you back up all necessary files and data before do-
ing so.
