Storage configurations and RAID

The HP Z640 Workstations includes a 2 port, 6 Gb/s Intel® SATA RAID controller 
(SATA) and a secondary 4 port, 6 Gb/s Intel® SATA RAID controller (sSATA). 

Storage Features

Controller interfaces and supported drive types

The controllers support the following drive types and max link speeds:

* Some encryption software used with SED drives requires that SATA emulation mode be set to AHCI.

RAID Levels

The RAID levels supported are shown in the table below:

Option ROM Launch Policy

In the Pre-OS environment, HP Workstations can use either Option ROM (OROM) or a Unified Extensible Firmware 
Interface (UEFI) driver for configuration and management of the RAID controllers. The default shipping configuration is 
set to 

All Legacy

 OROM. This can be changed in BIOS Setup under 

Advanced > Option ROM Launch Policy

. Select the 

desired Option ROM Launch Policy from the pull down menu. 

The OROM or UEFI driver is not available when the SATA or sSATA controllers are set to AHCI.

When the Option ROM Launch Policy is set to All Legacy, the SATA and sSATA OROM will only display at power on if 
there are two or more RAID capable devices attached to the controller, or a single device is attached that contains RAID 
metadata. In the later case, the OROM will show that the RAID is failed or degraded.

When the Option ROM Launch Policy is set to UEFI, the legacy OROM will not display and management of RAID can be 
performed in 

3rd Party Option ROM Management

 from the BIOS 

Startup Menu

. 

Controller Enable/Disable

The SATA and sSATA controllers can be Disabled or Enabled individually from the BIOS menu under 

Advanced > Device 

Configurations

. Select Enable or Disable from the pull down menu for the controller that you would like to Enable or 

Disable.
