software provide basic Workstation hardware monitoring that alerts a system administrator if a hard-
ware problem occurs.

The LDCM software is for use with Windows

Workstation operating systems. Other operating systems supported by the mainboard, such as
NetWare 6.0 or Red Hat Linux, will not be monitored with LDCM. Table 8 lists the monitored headers
and sensors on the mainboard.

Serial ATA RAID BIOS Configuration



NOTE

To use the SATA RAID option, two SATA hard disk drives are required.

Serial ATA on the mainboard is set to Base ATA mode by default. It must be changed to RAID mode
before the RAID Configuration Utility can be used to configure Serial ATA RAID drives.

Follow the instructions that come with this utility to change to RAID mode.
