6.1.3 Setting the RAID item in BIOS
You must set the RAID item in the BIOS Setup before you can create a RAID set
from SATA hard disk drives attached to the SATA connectors supported by
Intel
®
C204 chipset. To do this:
1. Enter the BIOS Setup during POST.
2. Go to the
Advanced
Menu >
SATAConguration
, then press <Enter>.
3. Set
SATA Mode
to [RAID Mode]
4. Press <F10> to save your changes and exit the BIOS Setup.
Refer to Chapter 4 for details on entering and navigating through the BIOS
Setup.
6.1.4 RAIDcongurationutilities
Depending on the RAID connectors that you use, you can create a RAID set using
the utilities embedded in each RAID controller. For example, use the
Intel
®
Rapid
Storage Technology
if you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives on the Serial ATA
connectors supported by the Intel
®
C204 chipset.
Refer to the succeeding section for details on how to use the RAID conguration
utility.
6.1.2 Installing hard disk drives
The motherboard supports Serial ATA for RAID set conguration. For optimal
performance, install identical drives of the same model and capacity when creating
a disk array.
To install the SATA hard disks for RAID conguration:
1. Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays following the instructions in the
system user guide.
2. Connect a SATA signal cable to the signal connector at the back of each drive
and to the SATA connector on the motherboard.
3. Connect a SATA power cable to the power connector on each drive.
