4. Serial ATA RAID connectors (7-pin SATA_RAID1, SATA_
RAID2, SATA_RAID3, SATA_RAID4)
Supported by the Silicon Image
®
Sil3114 RAID controller, these
connectors are for Serial ATA signal cables. These connectors support
up to four Serial ATA hard disk drives that can be configured as a
disk array through the onboard Silicon Image Sil3114 SATA RAID
controller. Refer to Chapter 5 for details on how to set up Serial ATA
RAID configurations.
Before creating a RAID configuration, make sure that you have
connected the Serial ATA cables to these connectors and have
installed the Serial ATA hard disks drives; otherwise, you cannot
enter the Silicon Image RAID utility and Serial ATA BIOS setup during
POST.
See Appendix for instructions on how to install the Serial ATA
extension module.
By default, the RAID function of these connectors are enabled. Disable
the Silicon SATA controller item in the BIOS, if you are not configuring
a set with these connectors. See section “4.4.3 Onboard Devices
Configuration” on page 4-24 for details.
