B. Configuring SATA controller mode in BIOS Setup
Make sure to configure the SATA controller mode correctly in system BIOS Setup.
Step 1:
Turn on your computer and press <Delete> to enter BIOS Setup during the POST (Power-On Self-Test).
Under Integrated Peripherals, ensure NV Serial-ATA Controller is enabled. To enable all four SATA
3Gb/s connectors, set this item to All Enabled (Figure 1). SATA-1 controls the SATAII0 and SATAII1
connectors only. To configure a RAID array, go to the SATA-II RAID Config submenu (Figure 2).
