VROC Key header
The VROC (Virtual Raid on CPU) Key header allows you to connect a VROC
hardware key to enable additional CPU RAID functions with Intel

VROC.
The VROC hardware key is purchased separately.

SATA RAID supports RAID 0/1/5/10 but cannot be used in a mixed RAID configuration with NVMe.
Also take note of the following regarding the VMD Domain in the VROC software:
Bootable RAID can only be created in the same VMD Domain.
Data RAID can be created across different VMD Domains.
All PCIe coming from the PCH is categorized in the same VMD Domain, and
bootable RAID can be created with them; for example, you can create a RAID0
configuration and install an OS with PCIe storage devices connected to the
SLIMSAS_1, SLIMSAS_2, SLIMSAS_3, M.2_1, and M.2_2 slots/connectors.
