RAID Support and Configuration
The 405-AAEB Dell SAS 12GBPS PCI Express Dual Channel External Controller Card supports a variety of RAID levels, including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. This allows for a range of options for data protection and performance optimization depending on the specific needs of the storage environment.
To configure RAID on the 405-AAEB controller card, the following steps can be taken:
- Install the controller card into an available PCI Express slot on the server and connect it to the external storage device or devices.
- Boot the server and enter the RAID controller's BIOS setup utility by pressing the appropriate key during the boot process (usually F10 or Ctrl+R).
- In the BIOS setup utility, navigate to the RAID configuration menu and select the RAID level that you want to use.
- Create a new virtual disk by selecting the physical disks that you want to include in the RAID array and specifying the RAID level.
- Initialize the virtual disk and create a RAID volume by specifying the RAID level, RAID size, and RAID stripe size.
- Exit the BIOS setup utility and boot the server into the operating system. The RAID volume should now be recognized and can be used as a regular storage device.
It's important to note that the specific steps and options may vary depending on the specific version of the RAID controller's BIOS and the operating system being used. Additionally, before performing any RAID configurations, it's important to have a backup of all the important data, as these configurations can lead to data loss if done incorrectly.
