MediaShield RAID congurations
The motherboard includes a high performance RAID controller integrated in the
NVIDIA
®
nForce
™
590 SLI southbridge chipset. It supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID
0+1, RAID 5 and JBOD for six independent Serial ATA channels.
Setting the BIOS RAID items
After installing the hard disk drives, make sure to set the necessary RAID items in
the BIOS before setting your RAID conguration.
To set the BIOS RAID items:
1. Boot the system and press <Del> during the Power-On Self-Test (POST) to
enter the BIOS Setup Utility.
2. From the Main > Serial ATA Conguration menu item in the BIOS set the
nVidia RAID Function item to Enabled.
3. Select and enable the SATA drive(s) that you want to congure as RAID. See
section “4.4.7 Onboard Device Conguration” for details.
4. Save your changes and Exit Setup.
• For detailed descriptions on the NVIDIA
®
RAID conguration, refer to the
“NVIDIA
®
RAID User’s Guide” found in your motherboard support DVD.
• When using Windows 2000 operating system, make sure to install the
Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or later versions.
Make sure to re-enter your NVRAID settings after the CMOS is cleared;
otherwise, the system will not recognize your RAID setup.
