RAID Support The server system provides an embedded SATA controller on the server board that is accessible through the passive backplane. The SATA controller 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". The Intel® Embedded Server RAID Technology II is enabled by the "Configure SATA as RAID" option. 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 over the bridge board. If RAID 5 is desired, the optional Intel® RAID Activation Key AXXRAKSW5 can be installed. To enable RAID 5, this activation key is placed on the SATA Key connector that is located at the left side of the server board. For information on configuring RAID, see the Intel® RAID Software User's Guide that is included on the Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit 3.0 CD. Advanced Management Options Intel® Remote Management Module 3 The Intel® Remote Management Module 3 plugs into a dedicated connector on the server board and provides additional server management functionality to the server board. This module provides a dedicated web server for viewing server information and remote control of the system. It also provides Remote KVM Redirection and USB Media Redirection allowing USB devices attached to the remote system to be used on the managed server.
