9-26 Upgrading Your Server
Onboard RAID Controller (LSI Embedded MegaRAID™)
RAID Controller is factory embedded in your mother board. Setting RAID configuration jumper
switch allows internal hard disk drives to be recognized as RAID drives.
Use LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility to configure the RAID System. See Chapter 4 for
details.
Optional RAID Controller (N8103-109/116A/117A)
Your server can include the optional RAID Controller (N8103-109/116A/117A). The optional RAID
Controller can control the internal hard disk drives as the RAID System. When configuring the
internal hard disk drive as a RAID system by installing an optional RAID controller
(N8103-109/116A/117A), use the following optional cable instead of the interface cable supplied
with the server:
When using a 3.5-inch hard disk drive:
K410-221(00) internal SAS cable
When using a 2.5-inch hard disk drive:
K410-220(00) internal SAS cable
At the factory, the interface cable is connected to the serial ATA connector on the mother board.
Refer to the manual coming with optional RAID Controller (N8103-109/116A/117A) for details.
IMPORTANT: The RAID Controller board is extremely sensitive to
static electricity. Make sure to wear the wrist strap (an arm belt or
antistatic glove), and discharge static electricity from your body before
handling the RAID Controller. Do not touch the RAID Controller
terminals or on-board parts by a bare hand or place the RAID
Controller directly on the non-anti-static table. For static notes, see the
section "Static Precautions" described earlier.
NOTE:
utility, select [Advanced] → [PCI Configuration], and confirm that
[Enabled] is set for the parameter [PCI Slot x Option ROM] (x: PCI slot
number).
Installation
See "PCI Board" in this chapter and manual that comes with the optional RAID Controller for the

IMPORTANT: When the RAID Controller is connected, the boot
priority specified in BIOS SETUP utility must be eighth or younger. If
specified ninth or later, the configuration menu of RAID Controller will
