Chapter 3 Appendix
(Note 1) An M.2 PCIe SSD cannot be used to set up a RAID set either with an M.2 SATA SSD or a SATA hard drive.
(Note 2) Refer to "Internal Connectors," for the installation notices for the M.2 and SATA connectors.
Before you begin, please prepare the following items:
•
At least two SATA hard drives or SSDs.
(Note 1)
(To ensure optimal performance, it is recommended that you
use two hard drives with identical model and capacity).
(Note 2)
•
Windows setup disc.
•
Motherboard driver disc.
•
A USB thumb drive.
Configuring the Onboard SATA Controller
A. Installing SATA hard drive(s) in your computer
Install the hard drives/SSDs in the Intel
®
Chipset controlled connectors on the motherboard. Then connect the
power connectors from your power supply to the hard drives.
B. Configuring SATA controller mode in BIOS Setup
Make sure to configure the SATA controller mode correctly in system BIOS Setup.
Steps:
1. Turn on your computer and press <Delete> to enter BIOS Setup during the POST (Power-On Self-Test). Go
to
Peripherals\SATA And RST Configuration
, make sure
SATA Controller(s)
is enabled. To create RAID,
set
SATA Mode Selection
to
Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration
. Note: When
using a PCIe SSD, make sure to set the
Use RST Legacy OROM
item under
Peripherals\SATA And RST
Configuration
to
Disabled
and
RST Control PCIe Storage Devices
to
Manual.
Then depending the M.2
connector you use, set the corresponding
PCIe Storage Dev on Port XX
item to
RST Controlled
. Finally,
save the settings and exit BIOS Setup. (If you want to use NVMe PCIe SSDs to configure RAID, make sure
to set
NVMe RAID mode
to
Enabled
.)
2.
To configure UEFI RAID, follow the steps in "C-1." To enter the legacy RAID ROM, refer to "C-2" for more
information. Finally, save the settings and exit BIOS Setup.
3-1 Configuring a RAID Set
The BIOS Setup menus described in this section may differ from the exact settings for your motherboard.
The actual BIOS Setup menu options you will see shall depend on the motherboard you have and
the BIOS version.
