Optional support for SW RAID 5 with activation key. The BIOS Setup utility provides multiple drive configuration options on the Advanced | Mass Storage Controller Configuration setup page, some of which affect the ability to configure RAID. By default, the "Onboard SATA Controller" option is enabled. When this option is enabled, you can set the "SATA Mode" option to the following modes, which also lists how the mode affects configuration: ENHANCED Mode: Supports up to six SATA ports with IDE Native Mode. COMPATIBILITY Mode: Supports up to four SATA ports[0/1/2/3] with IDE Legacy mode and two SATA ports[4/5] with IDE Native Mode. AHCI Mode: Supports all SATA ports using the Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) when the option is enabled. Note: For AHCI capability in EFI, you must set the AHCI legacy Option ROM to "disabled". SW RAID Mode: Supports configuration of SATA ports for RAID using RAID configuration software. 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. 8 Intel® Server Board S5500BC User's Guide
