Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology (Advanced Menu)
Enable/disable Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology from this menu to provide
high-performance SATA RAID capabilities for Windows 8. Note that this menu
item will be available if UEFI Boot is enabled (see
)
and the SATA Mode (Advanced Menu) is set to RAID (see below).
SATA Mode (Advanced Menu)
You can configure SATA (Serial ATA) control to operate in AHCI (Advanced Host
Controller Interface) or RAID (Redundant Array of Independent disks) modes from
this menu. The SATA Mode should be set BEFORE installing an operating sys-
tem, and after you have backed up all necessary files and data (see sidebar). See
“Setting Up SATA RAID or AHCI Mode” on page 7 - 2
for details. Make sure you
install the Intel Rapid Storage Technology application if you have set the SATA
Mode to RAID, or to AHCI

Option functions.
