Product Description 1.5.3.1 Intel® Rapid Storage Technology / SATA RAID The PCH supports Intel® Rapid Storage Technology, providing both AHCI and integrated RAID functionality. The RAID capability provides high-performance RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 functionality on all SATA ports. Other RAID features include hot spare support, SMART alerting, and RAID 0 auto replace. Software components include an Option ROM for pre-boot configuration and boot functionality, a Microsoft* Windows* compatible driver, and a user interface for configuration and management of the RAID capability of the PCH. 1.5.3.2 Intel® Smart Response Technology Intel® Smart Response Technology is a disk caching solution that can provide improved computer system performance with improved power savings. It allows configuration of a computer system with the advantage of having HDDs for maximum storage capacity with system performance at or near SSD performance levels. For more information on Intel Smart Response Technology, go to http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-032826.htm NOTE In order to use supported RAID and Intel Smart Response Technology features, you must first enable RAID in the BIOS. 25
