Appendix C RAID Controller Considerations
Embedded SATA RAID Controller
Embedded SATA RAID: Two SATA Controllers
The embedded RAID Patsburgh controller hub (PCH) is split into two controllers: SATA and sSATA
(secondary SATA). These two controllers are seen as separate RAID controllers in the Cisco IMC
interface and are configurable separately.
The first SATA controller controls front-facing drives 1–4; it can also control the two internal SATA
SSD boot drives (see Table C-4).
The secondary sSATA controller controls front-facing drives 5–8 (see Table C-4).
When configuring RAID groups, you cannot create a group that spans more than four drives.
The first SATA controller can control a RAID group of up to four drives, comprised of only front
drives 1–4 (see Figure C-2).
The first SATA controller can also control a RAID 1 group of the two internal SATA boot drives.
The secondary sSATA controller can control a RAID group of up to four drives, comprised of
only front drives 5–8 (see Figure C-2).
Figure C-2 Embedded RAID Controller Drive Groups
See Enabling the Embedded RAID Controller in the BIOS, page C-13 for instructions on enabling
the two SATA controllers.
Each controller is listed separately in the BIOS. You can select the boot order of the controllers in
the BIOS (use the Boot Options tab in the BIOS Setup Utility).
