Internal RAID Controller

To build a RAID System, use the Internal RAID Controller. The hard disk drive bays
are connected to the Internal RAID Controller at the factory.
Standard Configuration
Use WebBIOS to configure the RAID System.
Notice
Observe the following notes when configuring a RAID System:
■ The installed hard disk drives (SAS drives or SATA drives) must have the same
capacity and the same rotational speed. (The minimum number of required disks
depends on the configuration of RAID (Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive
[Independent] Disks).)
■ Select/set a RAID level "RAID0", "RAID1", "RAID5", or "RAID6".
When installing an operating system in an internal hard disk drive, you should use
"Express Setup" to perform all the procedures for the RAID System configuration, OS
installation, and the OS setup.
Use Express Setup even when not installing a system. Start Express Setup, select [OS
→
Selection]
RAID System configuration, and then maintenance utility installation.
When setting up in manual mode, use the RAID System configuration utility of the
onboard controller. You can start the utility during POST.
