How to build RAID in BIOS? - Computer Hardware

3 New Member

There are some requirements for setting up RAID:
1. The motherboard and BIOS support RAID configuration.
2. The motherboard has 2 or more available SATA protocol SSD/HDD slots (including MSATA, M.2 SATA, and 2.5-inch SATA hard drives).
Caution:
1. Important data on the hard drive should be backed up in advance, as this step will delete all data on the original hard drive.
2. Operating systems installed in AHCI or other modes will not work in RAID mode. The operating system must be reinstalled in RAID mode to boot normally.

After setting up RAID, only UEFI mode is supported for installing the operating system.
1. After pressing the computer's power button, quickly press the Del key to enter BIOS setup.
2. In BIOS, select Chipset > PCH-IO Configuration > SATA and RTS Configuration > Set "SATA Mode Selection" to "Intel RST Premium with Intel Optane System Acceleration". > Press Esc on your keyboard to exit the current page. Finally, select "Save and Exit".

You can also read this article to learn more about RAID0, RAID1, and RAID5, which I've also covered.

DMS vs. SMS on RAID 5

by: Joseph | last post by:

I've been thinking about the benefits or lack thereof of deploying DMS tablespaces for RAID, say RAID 5. The point of DMS is to get reasonable size extents of contiguous disk space so that minimal seeking is done with sequential scans of data and sequential prefetching can pipeline the reading of data with its processing etc. RAID...

RAID 5 is Killing Performance?

by: esmith2112 | last post by:

We replaced an aging system with a newer (faster 4-way) and presumably better system. Perfomance for most queries has improved as one would expect. However, we're getting slaughtered on performance for summary-style queries. What took 2 minutes now takes 2-3 hours to complete. We backed up DB and restored it on a borrowed (somewhat inferior...

Can anyone...
