Hardware Installation
A RAID 0 or RAID 1 configuration requires at least two hard drives. If more than two hard
drives are to be used, the total number of hard drives must be an even number.
A RAID 5 configuration requires at least three hard drives. (The total number of hard drives
does not have to be an even number.)
A RAID 10 configuration requires four hard drives.

SATA3_0/1 (SATA 6Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by Intel Q67 Chipset)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 6Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 3Gb/s and SATA
1.5Gb/s standard. Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The SATA3_0 and SATA3_1
connectors support RAID 0 and RAID 1. RAID 5 and RAID 10 can be implemented on the two connec-
tors with the SATA2_2/3/4/5 connector

SATA2_2/3/4/5 (SATA 3Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by Intel Q67 Chipset)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 3Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s standard.
Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The Intel Q67 Chipset supports RAID 0, RAID 1,
RAID 5, and RAID 10.
(Note)
When a RAID set is built across the SATA 6Gb/s and SATA 3Gb/s channels, the system perfor-
mance of the RAID set may vary depending on the devices being connected.
