Configuring an NVMe VROC module 

 

NOTE: 

The BIOS screens might vary by the BIOS version. The screenshots in this chapter are for 
illustration only. 

 

This chapter describes configuring the NVMe VROC module on a rack server, blade server, or 
compute module. 

About the NVMe VROC module 

Intel

®

 Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel

®

 VROC) is an upper-layer RAID solution specifically designed for 

NVMe drives that are directly connected to the CPU. VROC NVMe RAID is available only when an 
NVMe VROC module is installed. 

The NVMe VROC module has a corresponding connector on the system board or main board. For 
more information about the NVMe VROC module connector, see the user guide for the server. 

The NVMe VROC module can manage NVMe U.2 SSDs and NVMe M.2 SSDs connected to the 
system board or main board. If NVMe M.2 SSDs are connected to a storage controller, the NVMe 
M.2 SSDs are managed exclusively by the controller.

NVMe VROC module specifications 

Table 1

  shows the specifications of NVMe VROC modules  supported by the server.  For more 

information, contact Technical Support.
