If you use an embedded RAID controller with Linux and a DVD drive is present on the pSATA controller,
both the pSATA and the sSATA controller must be set to
LSI SW RAID
mode.

To access the configuration utility, open the BIOS Setup Utility, go to the
Advanced
tab, and then choose
the utility instance for the sSATA embedded controller:
