2.6.5 RAID IDE Disk Drive Connectors
The HighPoint RAID controller allows configuring RAID on hard
drives connected to the RAID IDE connectors. It supports RAID
levels 0, 1, 0+1 and 1.5.
RAID Level
RAID 0
RAID 1
RAID 0+1
RAID 1.5
The two shrouded RAID IDE headers (RAID 1 - J17 and RAID 2 -
J16) can interface up to four Enhanced IDE (Integrated Drive
Electronics) disk drives. To prevent improper IDE cable installation, the
shrouded RAID IDE header has a keying mechanism. The 40-pin
connector on the IDE cable can be placed into the header only if pin
1 of the connector is aligned with pin 1 of the header.
Hard drives must be Ultra ATA/133, Ultra ATA/100, Ultra ATA/66,
Ultra ATA/33, EIDE and/or Fast ATA-2 compatible. For optimal
performance, install identical drives of the same model and capacity.
The drives' matched performance allows the RAID array to function
better as a single drive.
