6.3.5.1 Staggered Disk Spin-Up
Because of the high density of disk drives that can be attached to the Intel® C620 onboard AHCI SATA
controller and the sSATA controller, the combined startup power demand surge for all drives at once can be
much higher than the normal running power requirements and could require a much larger power supply for
startup than for normal operations.
In order to mitigate this and lessen the peak power demand during system startup, both the AHCI SATA
Controller and the sSATA Controller implement a Staggered Spin-Up capability for the attached drives. This
means that the drives are started up separately, with a certain delay between disk drives starting.
For the onboard SATA controller, staggered spin-up is an option – AHCI HDD Staggered Spin-Up – in the
Mass Storage Controller Configuration screen found in the BIOS setup utility.
6.3.6 Onboard SATA RAID Options
The server board includes support for two embedded SATA RAID options:
•
Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise (Intel® RSTe) 5.0
• Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology 2 (Intel® ESRT2) 1.60
By default, onboard RAID options are disabled in BIOS setup. To enable onboard RAID support, access the
BIOS setup utility during POST. The onboard RAID options can be found under the sSATA Controller or
SATA Controller options under the following BIOS setup menu: Advanced > Mass Storage Controller
Configuration.
