Integrated Storage Controller Card

Your system includes a dedicated expansion-card slot on expansion-card

riser 1 for an integrated controller card that provides the integrated storage

subsystem for your system’s internal hard drives. The controller supports SAS

SATA, and SSD hard drives and also enables you to set up the hard drives in

RAID configurations as supported by the version of the storage controller

included with your system.
