functions. It allows you to get high performance with fault tolerance, big capacity, or
data safety provided by different RAID functions.
Here, we will use four SATA hard disks as an example to guide you how to select your
RAID system. Assume four hard disks are connected to the motherboard :
Lower SATA port of SATA_1 - WDC WD1200JD-98HBBO, 111.79GB
Lower SATA port of SATA_2 - Hitachi HDT725025VLA, 232.88GB
Upper SATA port of SATA_1 - HDS728080PLA380, 76.69GB
Upper SATA port of SATA_2 - ST3320620AS, 298.09GB
The relationships between RAID settings and SATA ports on the motherboard are :
SATA Pri-Master RAID is the lower SATA port of SATA_1 on the motherboard.
SATA Pri-Slave RAID is the lower SATA port of SATA_2.
SATA Sec-Master RAID is the upper SATA port of SATA_1.
SATA Sec-Slave RAID is the upper SATA port of SATA_2.
SATA Thr-Master RAID is the lower SATA port of SATA_3.
SATA Thr-Slave RAID is the upper SATA port of SATA_3.

In section 5-3 later, you will know the relationships between port numbers in the
MediaShield BIOS and SATA ports on the motherboard. We put their descriptions here
for better arrangement. They are :
Port 0.0 is the lower SATA port of SATA_1 on the motherboard.
Port 0.2 is the lower SATA port of SATA_2.
Port 0.1 is the upper SATA port of SATA_1.
