Set NV SATA RAID function to Enabled to enable RAID control for each SATA connector. Then enable the
SATA channels with hard drives that you want to use for RAID (for example, NV SATA 1 Primary RAID con-
trols the SATA2_0 connector and NV SATA 1 Secondary RAID controls the SATA2_1 connector) (Figure 2).
