connectors supported by the motherboard southbridge chip.
To enter the LSI MegaRAID software RAID configuration utility

•  The LSI MegaRAID software RAID configuration utility automatically 

configures to RAID 1 when the SATA to RAID Mode is enabled.

•  The RAID setup screens shown in this section are for reference only and 

may not exactly match the items on your screen due to the controller 

version difference.

•  When you create RAID sets with the LSI MegaRAID software RAID 

configuration utility, the boot priority of the SATA optical drive has to be 

manually adjusted. Otherwise, the system will not boot from the connected 

SATA ODD.
