6.6 Intel
®
Virtual Raid on CPU in BIOS
This feature requires a KEY module to enable CPU RAID functions with Intel
®
CPU RSTe.
• The KEY module is purchased separately.
• Due to chipset behavior, CPU RAID functions with Intel
®
CPU RSTe only supports
Intel
®
SSD modules.
• Refer to section 1.1.9 Internal connectors for the location of the VROC_HW_KEY
connector.
• Due to hardware design, [U.2_1 to U.2_4], or [PCIEX16_1], or [PCIEX16_2], or
[PCIEX16_3], or [PCIEX16_5], or [PCIEX16_6], or [PCIEX16_7], or [PCIEX16_2 and
PCIEX16_6] can support CPU RAID conguration as OS drives, but OS RAID may not
be built across the different [items] mentioned above.
• [PCIEX16_1], or [PCIEX16_2], or [PCIEX16_3], or [PCIEX16_5], or [PCIEX16_6], or
[PCIEX16_7], or [PCIEX16_2 and PCIEX16_6] can support OS RAID on Hyper M.2
cards installed on the [items] mentioned above.
• [PCIEX16_2 and PCIEX16_6] can support OS RAID on installed Intel
®
P3500 or
P3600 SSD.
