5.1.2 Installing hard disk drives
The motherboard supports Serial ATA for RAID set conguration. For optimal
performance, install identical drives of the same model and capacity when creating
a disk array.
To install the SATA hard disks for RAID conguration:
1. Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays following the instructions in the
system user guide.
2. Connect a SATA signal cable to the signal connector at the back of each drive
and to the SATA connector on the motherboard.
3. Connect a SATA power cable to the power connector on each drive.
5.1.3 Setting the RAID item in BIOS
You must set the RAID item in the BIOS Setup before you can create a RAID set
from SATA hard disk drives attached to the SATA connectors supported by
AMD SP5100 chipset. To do this:
1. Enter the BIOS Setup during POST.
2. Go to the
Main Menu
>
Storage Conguration
, then press <Enter>.
3. Set
SATA Port1-4
to [RAID] and

will be set to [RAID] too.
