Important notes on the RAID feature:
By default, the drive that you connect to the PRI_RAID
connector follow the ATA133/100/66/33 protocol as an
independent drive, not as a disk array.
The RAID/SATA controller chipset does not support ATAPI
devices such as CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, etc.
RAID feature only supported in Microsoft Operating
Systems.
