The BIOS Setup utility provides multiple drive configuration options on the Advanced |
ATA Controller setup page, some of which affect the ability to configure RAID. The
"Onboard SATA Controller" option is enabled by default. When this option is enabled, the
"SATA Mode" option can be set to either Legacy or Enhanced. The Legacy and Enhanced
modes affect the RAID configuration as follows:
•
In Legacy mode, the BIOS can enumerate only four drives and does not provide
RAID support.
•
In Enhanced mode, the BIOS is not limited to legacy PATA four drive limitations
and can enumerate the two PATA drives and four SATA drives (totalling six drives).
This mode is required for RAID configurations.
When the enhanced mode is selected, you can choose to "Configure SATA as RAID".
Under SATA RAID OPROM: choosing the LSI* option (Intel
Technology) will enable RAID 0, 1, and 10 while choosing Intel
Technology will enable RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10.
