I would suggest doing #2 above if you don't plan on using the drive as
part of a RR2310-controlled array. If you add a partition table and let
your RR2310 card treat it as "Legacy" then the drive can be moved around
freely between motherboard connectors and RR2310 connectors. If you do
#1 then you need a RocketRAID card to access the data on the drive.
