4.1.2 SATA Port Configuration
The SATA controller of Nuvo-5000 series supports two operating modes:
AHCI
and
RAID
mode.
AHCI
mode, which exposes SATA's advanced capabilities such as hot swapping
and native command queuing, is supported in most of modern operating systems.
RAID
mode provides a more reliable data storage (RAID 1/5/10) or a higher disk access
throughput (RAID 0/5/10).
The RAID feature is built in Intel Q170 chipset with BIOS support. No additional H/W or
driver is needed to use RAID function. You can configure the RAID volume during BIOS
POST. Please refer to section 4.3 for detail.
To configure SATA controller operating mode:
1. When Nuvo-5000 controller boots up, press F2 to enter BIOS setup utility.
2. Go to
[Advanced]
[SATA Configuration]
.
3. Set the
[SATA Mode Selection]
to a proper mode for your Nuvo-5000 controller.
