Modules
7 - 4 Setting Up SATA RAID or AHCI Mode
7
Prepare the following before setting up your serial ATA hard disks in RAID mode
(to configure AHCI mode you do not need to prepare any extra hard disks but will
need to install the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology application):
1. The Microsoft Windows 7 OS DVD.
2. A hard disk installed in the Primary HDD bay.
AND
For RAID levels 0/1 and Recovery: A second (identical) hard disk installed in the
Primary HDD bay.
For RAID level 5: A third (identical) hard disk installed in the Secondary HDD bay.
3. The Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s Manual disc.
Note that if you are using Advanced format hard disks that have a 4KB physical
sector size, and you are installing a Windows 7 release pre Service Pack 1, you will
need to install a driver from the Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s Manual disc at
OS installation (see page
8 - 18 ).
