2.1.2 Installing storage devices The motherboard supports Serial ATA hard disk drives and PCIE SSD storage devices. For optimal performance, install identical drives of the same model and capacity when creating a disk array. Refer to Chapter 2 in your motherboard's user manual for details on installing storage devices to your motherboard. 2.1.3 RaidXpert2 Configuration Utility in UEFI BIOS To enter the RaidXpert2 Configuration Utility in UEFI BIOS: 1. Enter the BIOS Setup during POST. Refer to Chapter 3 in your motherboard's user manual for details on entering and navigating through the BIOS Setup. 2. Go to Advanced > SATA Configuration, then set SATA Mode to [RAID]. Due to chipset limitation, when SATA ports are set to RAID mode, all SATA ports run at RAID mode together. 3. Configure additional settings for your storage device and RAID configuration: • If you are using SATA storage devices, no additional settings are required. Please proceed to next step. • If you are setting up an NVMe RAID set, go to Advanced > SATA Configuration (or Advanced > AMD PBS), then set NVMe RAID mode to [Enabled]. • If you are using Hyper M.2 x16 card(s), go to Advanced > Onboard Devices Configuration, then set the corresponding PCIE slot(s) to [PCIe RAID Mode]. The Hyper M.2 x16 card is purchased separately. 4. Go to Boot > CSM (Compatibility Support Module), then set Launch CSM to [Disabled]. 5. Save your changes and exit the BIOS Setup, then enter the BIOS Setup again. 6. Go to Advanced > RaidXpert2 Configuration Utility to display the RaidXpert2 Configuration Utility menu. 2-2 Chapter 2: AMD RAID Configuration
