For optimal performance, install identical drives of the same model and capacity when creating a disk array. To install the SATA hard disks for a RAID configuration: 1. Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays. 2. Connect the SATA signal cables. 3. Connect a SATA power cable to the power connector on each drive. 4.4.3 Setting the RAID item in BIOS You must enable the RAID function in the BIOS Setup before creating RAID set(s) using SATA HDDs. To do this: 1. Enter the BIOS Setup during POST. 2. Go to UEFI Advanced Mode and go to the Advanced menu > SATA Configuration > SB SATA Configuration, and then press . 3. Set the SATA Port item to [RAID Mode]. 4. Save your changes, and then exit the BIOS Setup. Refer to Chapter 3 for details on entering and navigating through the BIOS Setup.
