LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility

The LSI MegaRAID software RAID configuration utility allows you to create RAID 0,
RAID 1, or RAID 10 set(s) from SATA hard disk drives connected to the SATA connectors
supported by the motherboard southbridge chip.
Before you proceed, ensure that you have installed the Serial ATA hard disk drives, set
the correct jumper settings of the motherboard, and have set the correct SATA mode in
the BIOS setup. You can refer to sections 5.1.2 Installing hard disk drives, 5.1.3 Setting
Jumpers, and 5.1.4 Setting the RAID mode in BIOS for more information.
To launch the LSI MegaRAID software RAID configuration utility:
1. Turn on the system.
2. During POST, the LSI MegaRAID software RAID configuration utility automatically
detects the installed SATA hard disk drives and displays any existing RAID set(s).
Press <Ctrl>+<M> to enter the utility.

RAID 1 when the SATA to RAID Mode is enabled.
• The RAID setup screens shown in this section are for reference only and may not
exactly match the items on your screen due to the controller version difference.
• When you create RAID sets with the LSI MegaRAID software RAID configuration
utility, the boot priority of the SATA optical drive has to be manually adjusted.
Otherwise, the system will not boot from the connected SATA ODD.
