HostRAID
The following explains the overview of HostRAID and the setup procedure.
Overview of HostRAID
HostRAID provides RAID feature through the onboard serial ATA interface in your system.
HostRAID consists of the driver that controls disk arrays and "Adaptec Storage Manager
-
Browser Edition" (hereinafter referred to as "ASMBE") that is a disk array management utility.
The software products are mandatory for HostRAID to function normally. Be sure to install both
software products. For the driver, refer to the setup procedure explained in this manual. For
ASMBE, refer to the "Adaptec Storage Manager™ - Browser Edition User's Guide."
Overview of the specifications
Hard disk drive:
One hard disk drive for each channel (two hard disk drives
max.)
RAID level:
RAID0 or RAID1
Operating system:
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard
Edition/Enterprise Edition
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server/Advanced Server

BIOS setup utility, NEC EXPRESSBUILDER and ASMBE
Features
HostRAID enables the BIOS utility to select the disk array/standard SATA for each
channel.
Since the JAVA-based management utility ASMBE uses the browser (IE5.5 or later), the
software does not need to be installed into each client PC for management. (The software
must be installed in each server.)
