Configuring Intel SATA RAID
This section describes how to use Intel
®
Rapid Storage Technology enterprise (Intel
®
RSTe) to set up and
manage SATA RAID volumes.
NOTE: These instructions apply to Windows-based systems. They also apply to Linux distributions that
include the isci kernel driver support for the RSTe technology. This driver is included on recent releases of
most upstream and enterprise distributions, and may be available for addition to some previous releases. If
this driver is not available in the distribution, or is not applicable to the platform (e.g., the RST controller), the
Software RAID solution is recommended.
You can create a SATA RAID array that contains up to the maximum number of internal SATA hard drives and
eSATA drives (if you use an optional eSATA bulkhead cable) supported on your workstation.
Two or more hard drives must be attached to a controller (sSATA) for that controller's option ROM to run. If
two or more drives are on each controller, a unique option ROM executes for each controller.
The Intel SATA AHCI option ROM configuration utilities run when you select RAID+AHCI for the SATA
emulation mode.
Configuring system BIOS
To set up a RAID configuration, the emulation mode must be set to RAID+AHCI in Computer Setup (F10)
Utility. This is the default setting. If the mode has been changed, follow these steps to reinstate it.
1. During startup, press F10 to enter Computer Setup (F10) Utility. Use the arrow keys to navigate and
select options.
2. Select a language from the list, and then press Enter.
3. Select Advanced > Device Configurations, then press Enter.
4. Select SATA Controller Mode > RAID, then press F10 to accept the new settings.
