Installing a Hardware RAID Controller

Hard disk drives are supported with SAS software RAID 0/1/10 on the CG2200 server by default.
Hardware RAID support requires a separately-orderable SAS hardware RAID controller, which is
described in this section.

The components used as examples in this section are from the Intel® RS2VB080 hardware RAID 5
controller kit and the RAID cable kit that is tailored for use with this RAID controller.

Figure 29 shows the SAS hardware RAID controller board, which provides SAS RAID functionality for the
server. The board’s gold edge connector attaches to a header on the baseboard as shown in Figure 29.
