For details on the Silicon Image SATARaid™ RAID configuration, refer
to the "Sil3114 User's Manual" in the motherboard support CD.
A RAID 5 configuration requires at least 1 GB of system memory and
3 GHz processor core speed for optimum performance.
You can only set the SATALink™ RAID 5 and JBOD configuration
using the SATALink™ SATA RAID Management Software.
Make sure to install the Silicon Image SATA Link Sil 3114 driver and
the Silicon Image RAID 5 Array Management Utility before using
RAID 5 configuration.
