Chapter 5: RAID Configuration
5 Chapter summary This chapter provides instructions for setting up, creating, and configuring RAID sets using the available utilities. This chapter contains the following sections: 5.1 Setting up RAID........................................................................................... 5-3 5.2 Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise 5.3 SATA Option ROM Utility............................................................................
5.1 Setting up RAID 5.1.1 RAID definitions The motherboard comes with the Intel® C224 controller that supports Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise Option ROM Utility with RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, and RAID 5 support (for Windows® OS only). RAID 0 (Data striping) optimizes two identical hard disk drives to read and write data in parallel, interleaved stacks.
5.1.2 Installing hard disk drives The motherboard supports Serial ATA for RAID set configuration. For optimal performance, install identical drives of the same model and capacity when creating a disk array. To install the SATA hard disks for RAID configuration: 1. Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays following the instructions in the system user guide. 2. Connect a SATA signal cable to the signal connector at the back of each drive and to the SATA connector on the motherboard. 3.
5.2 Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise SATA Option ROM Utility The Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise SATA Option ROM utility allows you to create RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10 (RAID 1+0), and RAID 5 set from Serial ATA hard disk drives that are connected to the Serial ATA connectors supported by the Southbridge. Before you proceed, ensure that you have installed the Serial ATA hard disk drives, and have set the correct SATA mode in the BIOS setup. You can refer to sections 5.1.
5.2.1 Creating a RAID set To create a RAID set: 1. From the utility main menu, select 1. Create RAID Volume and press . 2. Key in a name for the RAID set and press . Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology enterprise - SATA Option ROM - 3.6.0.1023 Copyright(C) 2003-12 Intel Corporation. All Rights Reserved. [ CREATE VOLUME MENU ] Name: Volume0 RAID Level: RAID0(Strips) Disks: Select Disks Strip Size: 128KB Capacity: 0.
6. Use the up/down arrow keys to select the stripe size for the RAID array (for RAID 0, 10 and 5 only) then press . The available stripe size values range from 4 KB to 128 KB. The following are typical values: RAID 0: 128KB RAID 10: 64KB RAID 5: 64KB We recommend a lower stripe size for server systems, and a higher stripe size for multimedia computer systems used mainly for audio and video editing. 7.
5.2.2 Deleting a RAID set Take caution when deleting a RAID set. You will lose all data on the hard disk drives when you delete a RAID set. To delete a RAID set: 1. From the utility main menu, select 2. Delete RAID Volume and press . 2. From the Delete Volume Menu, press the up/down arrow keys to select the RAID set you want to delete then press .

5.2.3 Resetting disks to Non-RAID Take caution before you reset a RAID volume hard disk drive to non-RAID. Resetting a RAID volume hard disk drive deletes all internal RAID structure on the drive. To reset a RAID set: 1. From the utility main menu, select 3. Reset Disks to Non-RAID and press . 2. Press the up/down arrow keys to select the drive(s) or disks of the RAID set you want to reset, then press . A small triangle before the Port number marks the selected drive.
5.2.4 Exiting the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise SATA Option ROM utility To exit the utility: 1. From the utility main menu, select 4. Exit then press . 2.

Delete RAID Volume RAID Volumes: ID Name 1 Volume0 [ MAIN MENU ] 3. Reset Disks to Non-RAID 4.
5.2.6 Setting the Boot array in the BIOS Setup Utility You can set the boot priority sequence in the BIOS for your RAID arrays when creating multiRAID using the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise SATA Option ROM utililty. To set the boot array in the BIOS: Set at least one of the arrays bootable to boot from the hard disk. 5-12 1. Reboot the system and press to enter the BIOS setup utility during POST. 2. Go to the Boot menu and select the boot option priority. 3.
5.3 Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise (Windows) The Intel® Rapid Storage Technology enterprise allows you to create RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10 (RAID 1+0), and RAID 5 set(s) from Serial ATA hard disk drives that are connected to the Serial ATA connectors supported by the Southbridge.

If you wish to change the settings, go to Volume Properties.
5.3.2 Changing a Volume Type To change the volume type in Volume Properties: 1. Click the SATA array items you want to change in Volumes field. 2 From the Volume Properties field, select Type:RAID 1 Change type. 3. You can also change the Name, Select the new volume type, and Select additional disks to include in the new volume if needed. 4. Select the Data stripe size for the RAID array (for RAID 0, 10 and 5 only) and click OK. The available stripe size values range from 4 KB to 128 KB.
5.3.3 Deleting a volume Be cautious when deleting a volume. You will lose all data on the hard disk drives.Before you proceed, ensure that you back up all your important data from your hard drives. To delete a volume: 1. From the Volumes field in the utility main menu, select the volume that you want to delete. 2. From the Volume Properties field, select Delete volume. 3. Click Yes to delete the volume and return to the utility main menu, or click No to return to the main menu.
