           !!! Attention for upgrading KR7A-RAID/KR7A-133R BIOS!!! 

When you upgrade bios from old version to B5, we highly recommend you backup 
your system and data to an independent storage device first. New HPT 2.32 
bios may corrupt original RAID configuration created on old bios occasionally. 
That means you may need to rebuild RAID configuration. If it happens, all the
data on RAID-0 will be gone! 

For RAID-1 user, please press "CTRL+H" to enter HPT372 setup screen and do 
"Duplicate Mirror Disk " to recover RAID system.
