Chapter 2: Hardware information

6. Serial ATA RAID connectors (7-pin SATA_RAID1, SATA_RAID2)

These Serial ATA connectors support SATA hard disks that you may
configure as a RAID set. Through the onboard Promise

®

PDC20378

RAID controller, you may create a RAID0, RAID1, RAID0+1, or multi-
RAID configuration.

1. If you wish to create a RAID set, make sure that you have

connected the SATA cable and installed Serial ATA devices. You
cannot enter the SATARaid™ utility and SATA BIOS setup during
POST if there are no connected Serial ATA devices.

2. The Promise

®

PDC20378 RAID controller does not support ATAPI

devices such as CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, etc.

3. For RAID 0 and RAID 1 configurations, use both Parallel ATA and

Serial ATA devices for better performance.
