Combine up to 12 SATA drives into 2-4 volumes for bigger, faster RAID. More drives mean more configuration options such as 2x RAID 0 for boot partition, 2x RAID 0 for enhanced gaming, 4x RAID 5 for multimedia applications, and 4x RAID5 for media data storage. Take advantage of the latest SATA 3Gb/s hard drives with full support for hot plugging and native and tagged command queuing which can provide higher disk performance in a multi-threaded environment by performing out-of-order disk accesses.
