* The onboard SATA controller integrated into the Intel C622 Platform Controller Hub (PCH) supports non-RAID (JBOD) AHCI
mode or a hardware-assist, software RAID feature (Intel Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise [RSTe]).
** Available in China only.
Configuration note: Low profile SAS RAID controllers and HBAs for internal storage are supported in the
PCIe x8 slot 4 on the system board and full-high PCIe x8 and x16 slots supplied by the riser cards 1 and 2.
The onboard NVMe interface provides 4x PCIe 3.0 x4 ports for JBOD (non-RAID) connectivity to U.2 NVMe
PCIe SSDs in the AnyBay drive bays.
The following table summarizes features of supported SAS/SATA storage controllers.
