2.5.1 RAID Support
The BIOS Setup Utility provides drive configuration options on the “Advanced --> Drive Configuration” setup
page, some of which affect the ability to configure RAID. The On-board SATA Controller option is enabled by
default and when enabled, the SATA Mode option can be set to either one of the following three modes:
“IDE” It supports up to six SATA ports with IDE legacy Mode.
“AHCI” It supports all SATA ports using the Advanced Host Controller Interface.
“RAID” In this mode, the Intel Embedded Server RAID Technology II is enabled.It provides RAID modes 0, 1, 5
and 10. At least two disks must be connected to activate the RAID 0 and 1, three disks to activate the RAID 5
and four disks to activate the RAID 10. All SATA ports are switched to RAID support.
When RAID option is set, a reboot is required to activate the RAID controller

The integrated VGA controller is fully compliant with the well-known legacy VGA standard. The maximum
graphics display resolution mode the board can support is 1600x1200@60Hz. The video controller is not
optimized for 3D rendering.

essential data content prior to enabling the feature.
In such case, it is strongly recommended to backup your data before.
