DeviceConnection

The SATA II-150 PCI RAID is a two channel Serial ATA

controller that supports two Serial ATA hard disk drives.

It is recommended to use identical hard drives for all

RAID configurations, however, it's possible to combine

hard drives of different sizes and makes.

RAID Arrays

RAID Arrays are setup in the SATA II-150 PCI RAID

BIOS.

disk drive, including data, drive and partition

information. The Low Level Format utility works on

singleharddrives only, before the RAID setisconfigured.

BIOS Configuration

SATA II-150 PCI RAID BIOS will appear everytime your

system starts up. If the BIOS doesn't show, please try

your controller in another PCI slot. During this (Post)
