Recommendations on using the ADI2S3GPX1-2E
There are two ways of configuring raid sets on the ADI2S3GPX1-2E. Use the
RAID BIOS of the controller card which shows up after POST or install the
JMB36X RAID Configurer in Windows to create raid volumes. The JMB36X RAID
Configurer will not run when no devices are attached to the controller.
Using the RAID BIOS to create RAID Volumes
There are four configurations supported:
RAID level/Type Configurations Number of disks needed
RAID 0 Disk Striping 2 or 3 or 4
RAID 1 Disk Mirroring 2
RAID 0+1 Disk Striping + Mirroring 4
JBOD Disk Concatenation 2 or 3 or 4
