Appendix E  

 

Configuring VROC RAID Settings

Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC) is a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) 
solution that integrates with Intel® Volume Management Device (Intel® VMD) for Non-Volatile 
Memory Express (NVMe) solid-state drives (SSDs). The E.1 section provides instructions on 
how to access the All Intel VMD Controller menu. The E.2 section provides instructions on 

how to configure RAID settings. The E.3 section describes the use of journaling drive for the 

RAID5 volume (parity based RAID).

Note 1:

 Only use NVMe devices that have been validated by Supermicro. For the lat-

est updates, please contact us or refer to our website at 

https://www.supermicro.com.

Note 2:

 Depending on the version of driver/utility/package, it may or may not have 

exactly the same as the BIOS settings/features shown in the appendix.

E.1 All Intel VMD Controllers Menu

The following section provide you with instructions on how to access the 

All Intel VMD 

Controllers menu

 which will allow you to enable a selected PCI slot for VMD support. 

Enabling a PCI Slot for VMD Support in the BIOS Setup Utility

1. Press <Del> during system boot to enter the BIOS Setup utility. 

2. Use the arrow key to select 

Advanced

 on top of the BIOS menu bar.

3. Use the down arrow key to select 

Chip Configuration

 and press <Enter>.

4. Select 

North Bridge

 and press <Enter>.

5. Use the down arrow key to select 

IIO Configuration

 and press <Enter>.
