Introduction
Important
1. The least number of hard drives for RAID 0 or RAID 1 is 2. The least
number of hard drives for RAID 10 mode is 4.
2. All the information/volumes listed in your system might differ from the
illustrations in this appendix.
3. When installing SuSE OS under SATA RAID & AHCI mode, once the OS
boots from the CD-ROM, select F3 or F5 as requested to add drivers.
Then toggle to

4. RAID support on Linux OS will be changed by vendors. Please contact
MSI Sales if you need SATA RAID support on Linux OS.
The Southbridge provides a hybrid solution that combines six independent SATAII
ports for support of up to six SATAII (or four SATAII RAID 10) drives.
Serial ATAII (SATAII) is the latest generation of the ATA interface. SATA hard drives
deliver blistering transfer speeds up to 300MB/sec. Serial ATA uses long, thin cables,
making it easier to connect your drive and improving the airflow inside your PC. The
most outstanding features are:
1. Supports 300MB/s transfers with CRC error checking.
2. Supports Hot-plug-n-play feature.
3. Data handling optimizations including tagged command queuing, elevator seek
and packet chain command.
The Intel Southbridge offers RAID level 0 (Striping), RAID level 1 (Mirroring and
Duplexing) and RAID level 10 (A Stripeof Mirrors).
RAID 0 breaks the data into blocks which are written to separate hard drives. Spreading
the hard drive I/O load across independent channels greatly improves I/O performance.
RAID 1 provides data redundancy by mirroring data between the hard drives and
provides enhanced read performance.
RAID 10 Not one of the original RAID levels, multiple RAID 1 mirrors are created, and
a RAID 0 stripe is created over these. Intel Matrix RAID Technology is the advanced
ability for two RAID volumes to share the combined space of two hard drives being
used in unison.
