These controllers support RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 10, and RAID 50
|
2006-12-18 01:57:14 +03:00
|
|
|
using either SAS or SATA II drives.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Although the controllers are actual RAID controllers,
|
|
|
|
|
the driver makes them look just like SCSI controllers.
|
|
|
|
|
All RAID configuration is done through the controllers' BIOSes.
