RAID Support The Intel® Server Board S5000VCL provides SATA only support. For information on configuring RAID, see the RAID software user's guide that is included on the Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit 2.0 CD. SATA Server Board The Intel® Server Board S5000VCL provides an embedded SATA controller that supports both 1.5 and 3.0 Gbps data transfer rates. The BIOS Setup utility provides multiple drive configuration options on the Advanced | ATA Controller setup page, some of which affect the ability to configure RAID. The "Onboard SATA Controller" option is enabled by default. When this option is enabled, the "SATA Mode" option can be set to either Legacy or Enhanced. The Legacy and Enhanced modes affect the RAID configuration as follows: • Legacy supports four disk drives and does not provide RAID support. • Enhanced supports six disk drives and is required for RAID configurations. When the enhanced mode is selected, you can choose to enable or disable "AHCI Mode" or "Configure SATA as RAID". Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology II is enabled by the option, "Configure SATA as RAID." The Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology II feature provides RAID modes 0, 1, and 10. For RAID 0, 1, and 10, enclosure management is provided through the SATA_SGPIO connector on the server board when a cable is attached between this connector on the server board and to the backplane or I2C interface. Note: For assistance in navigating through the BIOS Setup utility, see the Intel® Server Board S5000VCL Technical Product Specification. 6 Intel® Server Board S5000VCL User Guide
