Setting Up SATA RAID Mode
AHCI Mode
Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) is an interface specification that allows
the storage driver to enable advanced serial ATA features such as Native Command
Queuing (for maximum hard disk efficiency and performance). AHCI mode can be
supported by one, two or three hard disks.
RAID
To configure your system in Striping (RAID 0) or Mirroring (RAID 1) modes (see
Table 7 - 1, on page 7 - 3) you will require at least two identical (see sidebar) hard
disks; to configure your system in Intel® Rapid Recover Technology (Recovery)
mode you will require two hard disks installed; to configure your system in Parity
Across Disks (RAID 5) mode you will require three hard disks installed.
Intel® Matrix Storage Manager
Make sure you install the Intel Matrix driver and application if you have set up your
hard disk(s) in RAID mode (see “Intel Turbo Memory & Matrix Storage Setup and
Driver Installation” on page 7 - 8).
