The
3.2.2.1Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology II Support
The onboard storage capability of this server board includes support for Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology which provides three standard software RAID levels: data stripping (RAID Level 0), data mirroring (RAID Level 1), and data stripping with mirroring (RAID Level
10). For higher performance, data stripping can be used to alleviate disk bottlenecks by taking advantage of the dual independent DMA engines that each SATA port offers. Data mirroring is used for data security. Should a disk fail, a mirrored copy of the failed disk is brought
There is no loss of either PCI resources (request/grant pair) or
With the addition of an optional Intel RAID Activation Key, Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology is also capable of providing fault tolerant data stripping (software RAID Level 5), such that if a SATA hard drive should fail, the lost data can be restored on a replacement drive from the other drives that make up the RAID 5 pack.
See Figure 2 Major Board Components for the location of Intel RAID Activation Key connector location.
Note: Availability of the Intel RAID Activation Key to support software RAID 5 will be deferred until after product launch of this server board.
