AHCI eSATA Options
Option Values:
SATA
eSATA
Help Text:
- SATA mode enables the switchable internal AHCI SATA (port 0)
- eSATA mode enables the switchable external AHCI eSATA (port 0)
- These modes are mutually exclusive, so SATA port 0 will only be active on one
connector, not both
Comments:
In order to use the external eSATA connection, this option must be set to
eSATA
. This option setting only appears when the SATA Controller is enabled and only for
platforms which support eSATA.

ESRT2 (LSI*)
Intel
®
RSTe
Help Text:
- Intel
®
ESRT2 (Powered By LSI*): Supports RAID 0/1/10 and optional RAID 5 with
Intel
®
RAID C600 Upgrade Keys. Uses Intel ESRT2 drivers (based on LSI* MegaSR).
- Intel
®
RSTe: Provides pass-through drive support. Also provides host based RAID
0/1/10/5 support. Uses Intel
®
RSTe iastor drivers.
Comments:
This option only appears when the SATA Controller is enabled, and
RAID Mode
has been selected as the operational SATA Mode. This setting selects the RAID
stack to be used for SATA RAID with the onboard AHCI SATA controller.
If a RAID Volume has not previously been created that is compatible with the RAID stack
selected, it will be necessary to Save and Exit and reboot in order to create a RAID Volume.
