RocketRAID 2522 Hardware Description/Installation

After installing the adapter, attach hard disks or enclosure to the RocketRAID 2522

using the appropriate data cables.

Many server-level disk enclosure or chassis include hard-disk hot-swap bays. For

these system chassis, cables are attached to the unit’s backplane, rather than directly

to each individual hard disk. Consult the device’s manual for proper installation

procedures.

Close and secure the disk enclosure/chassis.

4 - Verifying Installation

Once the RocketRAID 2522 host adapter and hard disks have been installed into the

disk enclosure/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 2522 BIOS Utility will be displayed during bootup.

2.

Press Ctrl+H to access the RocketRAID 2522 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 data cable connec-

tions of the enclosure.
