How to setup RAID array for Intel chipset

Upon powering on the PC, please start hitting the [Del] key continuously to enter the BIOS menu,

Select [SETTINGS] → [Advanced] → select [Windows OS Configurations] → Set [ Windows 10 WHQL Support] as [UEFI].

Select [SETTINGS] → select [advanced] → Set [SATA mode] as [RAID/Optane Mode].

Upon powering on the PC, please start hitting the [Del] key continuously to enter the BIOS menu,

Select [SETTINGS] → [Advanced] → select [Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology].

Select [Create RAID Volume]

Select [RAID Level]

Select the RAID mode according to your need. Here we take the RAID0 as an example, select [RAID 0 (Stripe)].

RAID 0: Minimum two or more disks with the same amount of channels, protocol and capacity. RAID 0 will improve storage read and write speeds to increase the performance concurrently.

RAID 1: Minimum two or more disks with the same amount of channels, protocol and capacity. The data is backup mirrored on each drive. Provide a higher data security and reliability.

RAID 5: Minimum three or more disks with the same amount of channels, protocol and capacity. It can be seen as a compromised option for RAID 0 and RAID 1, which provide a higher performance with greater read and write speeds and data security. The downside of it is the data writing speed would be slightly slower than a single drive.

RECOVERY: When RAID1 or RAID5 fails, install a new disk and use RECOVERY mode to restore the RAID array.

Select the disks for RAID

For example, select the disks for HGST & WDC and then click [create Volume]

You can see the RAID Volumes [Volume1, RAID 0(Stripe), 1.8TB, Normal] has been created at this moment.

Select the RAID mode according to your need. Here we take the RAID0 as an example, select [RAID 0 (Stripe)].

RAIDABLE: For AMD chipset, please select RAIDABLE mode when using a single drive.

RAID 0: Minimum two or more disks with the same amount of channels, protocol and capacity. RAID 0 will improve storage read and write speeds to increase the performance concurrently.

RAID 1: Minimum two or more disks with the same amount of channels, protocol and capacity. The data is backup mirrored on each drive. Provide a higher data security and reliability.

The downside of it is the data writing speed would be slightly slower than a single drive.

Click [Select Physical Disks]

Select the RAID disks. For example: setup [Physical Disk 0:1:3]& [Physical Disk0:1:7] as [Enable] → Click [Apply Changes]

Select [Create Array]
