Intel Anti-Theft Technology (Advanced Menu)
Anti-Theft Technology, which is built-in to the processor of the computer, allows
system administrators to render your computer useless to thieves by sending a poi-
son pillencrypted SMS message over a 3G network etc. Administrators can also re-
motely unlock a recovered computer quickly, or direct the system to send location
information (GPS coordinates) back to a central server.
SATA Mode (Advanced Menu)
You can configure SATA (Serial ATA) control to operate in AHCI (Advanced Host
Controller Interface) or RAID (Redundant Array of Independent disks) modes from
this menu. The SATA Mode should be set BEFORE installing an operating sys-
tem , and after you have backed up all necessary files and data (see sidebar). See
“Setting Up SATA RAID or AHCI Mode” on page 7 - 2 for details. Make sure you
install the Intel Rapid Storage Technology application if you have set the SATA
Mode to RAID, or to AHCI “IRST Driver Installation” on page 7 - 45 .
