3.

After installing the adapter, attach hard drives to the host adapter using the

appropriate data cable. These host adapters can support up to 4 3Gb/s SAS or

SATA hard drives directly.

Note: Many server-level chassis include hard-disk hot-swap bays. For these

system chassis, cables are attached to the chassis backplane, rather than

directly to each individual hard disk. Consult the chassis’s manual for proper

installation procedures.

4.

Close and secure the system chassis.

4 - Verifying Installation

Once the host adapter and hard disks have been installed into the chassis, boot-up

the system to verify that the hardware is properly recognized.

1.

Power on the system. If the system detects the presence of the adapter, the

RocketRAID 264x BIOS Utility will be displayed during bootup.

2.

Press Ctrl+H to access the RocketRAID 264x adapter’s BIOS Utility.

The BIOS Utility will display information about hard disks attached to the adapter.

Make sure all attached disks are detected by this utility. If any of the hard disks are

not detected, power down the system and check the power and cable connections.
