1. Release note
   This package is ver 1.0, adapted from VIA RAID Tool
   RaidTool_V552 for the VIA SATA/IDE RAID controller
   such as VT6410, VT6420, VT6421, VT8237 and VT8251.

   VIA RAID Tool implements main RAID functions (like RAID 0) 
   in conjunction with the hardware, hence it's very easy for you 
   to achieve RAID functions using VIA RAID Tool.

   VIA provides the user with this sample component implementation,
   to ease development and test effort. The user, however,
   is advised to obtain the latest available driver and author
   his or her own components.
