Use LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility to configure the RAID System. See Chapter 4 for

Optional RAID Controller (N8103-116A/117A/118A)
Your server can include the optional RAID Controller (N8103-116A/117A/118A). The optional
RAID Controller can control the internal hard disk drives as the RAID System. To use the hard disk
drives in a RAID System, reconnect the hard disk drive interface cable on the mother board.
At the factory, the interface cable is connected to the SATA connector on the mother board.
Refer to the manual coming with optional RAID Controller (N8103-116A/117A/118A) for details.
IMPORTANT:
The RAID Controller board is extremely sensitive to
static electricity. Make sure to touch the metal frame of the server to
discharge static electricity from your body before handling the RAID
Controller. Do not touch the RAID Controller terminals or on-board
parts by a bare hand or place the RAID Controller directly on the desk.
For static notes, see the section "Anti-static Measures" described earlier.
NOTE:
Before installing an optional RAID Controller, run the SETUP
utility, select [Advanced]
→
[PCI Configuration], and confirm that
[Enabled] is set for the parameter [PCI Slot xx ROM] (xx: PCI slot
number).
