you to create the following RAID set(s) from SAS hard disk drives supported by the
LSI1068 PCI-X SAS controller:
•
RAID 1 (Integrated Mirroring)
•
RAID 1E (Integrated Mirroring Enhanced)
•

•
DO NOT combine Serial ATA and SAS disk drives in one volume.
•
The RAID setup screens shown in this section are for reference only and
may not exactly match the items on your screen due to the controller
version difference.
