7.3 Accessing the JMicron RAID Utility
To access the JMicron RAID Utility, please follow the steps below:
Step 1: Connect two SATA drives to the system. Ideally the two drives should be
identical, but two non-identical drives will work too.
NOTE:
Make sure the SATA drives are EXACTLY the same when they are
configured in a RAID configuration (JBOD, RAID 0 or RAID 1). If they
are not the same size, disk drive capacity is sacrificed and overall
performance affected.
Step 2: Enable SATA drives in BIOS. Access the AMI BIOS setup program. Open the
Advanced CMOS Setup menu. Go to the IDE configuration menu. Set “Sec,
SATA controller mode” to [RAID]. To enable the system to boot from the SATA
drives, go to the BOOT menu and set “Boot from SATA function” to [ENABLED].
Step 3: Save and Exit the BIOS.
