B. Configuring SATA controller mode in BIOS Setup
Make sure to configure the SATA controller mode correctly in system BIOS Setup.
Step 1:
Turn on your computer and press <Delete> to enter BIOS Setup during the POST (Power-On Self-Test).
Ensure OnChip SATA Controller is enabled under Integrated Peripherals. To enable RAID for the
SATA2_0/1/2/3 connectors, set OnChip SATA Type to RAID. To enable RAID for the SATA2_4/5 connectors,
set OnChip SATA Type to RAID and set OnChip SATA Port4/5 Type to As SATA Type (Figure 1).
Step 2:
Save changes and exit BIOS Setup.

The BIOS Setup menus described in this section may differ from the exact settings for your moth-
erboard. The actual BIOS Setup menu options you will see shall depend on the motherboard you
have and the BIOS version.
