RAID 1:
Uses mirroring so that data written to one disk drive simultaneously writes to another disk
drive. This is good for small databases or other applications that require small capacity but complete
data redundancy
RAID 10:
A combination of RAID 0 and RAID 1, consists of striped data across mirrored spans. It
provides high data throughput and complete data redundancy but uses a larger number of spans.
Optional support for RAID Level 5
o
Enabled with the addition of an optionally installed ESRT2 SATA RAID 5 Upgrade Key (
iPN -
RKSATA4R5
)

RAID 5:
Uses disk striping and parity data across all drives (distributed parity) to provide high
data throughput, especially for small random access.
Intel Embedded Server RAID Technology 2 on this server board supports a maximum of six drives which is
the maximum onboard SATA port support.
The binary driver includes partial source files. The driver is fully open source using an MDRAID layer in
Linux*.
Note
: RAID configurations cannot span across the two embedded AHCI SATA controllers.
