System Configuration

3.2 <SATA RAID Configuration>

The board integrates Intel® ICH6R with RAID function for Serial ATA drives, and supports

the configurations below:

RAID 0 (Stripping): Two hard drives operating as one drive for optimized data R/W performance. It needs two unused drives to build this operation.

RAID 1 (Mirroring): Copies the data from first drive to second drive for data security, and if one drive fails, the system would access the applications to the workable drive. It needs two unused drives or one used and one unused drive to build this operation. The second drive must be the same or lager size than first one.

Intel Matrix Storage Technology: This technology would allow you to use RAID 0+1 mode on only two drives (4 drives needed on traditional RAID 0+1). It will create two partitions on each hard drive to simulate RAID 0 and RAID 1. It also can let you modify the partition size without re-formatted.

For more information of Intel Matrix Storage Technology, please visit Intel’s website.

If you need to install an operation system on the RAID set, please use the driver disk attached in the package when it informs you to obtain the RAID drivers.

Please press <CTRL+I> to enter the RAID configuration menu.
