BIOS Setup
BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) records hardware parameters of the system
in the CMOS on the motherboard. Its major functions include conducting the
Power-On Self-Test (POST) during system startup, saving system parameters and
loading operating system, etc. BIOS includes a BIOS Setup program that allows
the user to modify basic system configuration settings or to activate certain
system features. When the power is turned off, the battery on the motherboard
supplies the necessary power to the CMOS to keep the configuration values in
the CMOS. To access the BIOS Setup program, press the
and updates the BIOS. · Because BIOS flashing is potentially risky, if you do
not encounter problems using the current version of BIOS, it is recommended
that you not flash the BIOS. To flash the BIOS, do it with caution. Inadequate
BIOS flashing may result in system malfunction. · It is recommended that you
not alter the default settings (unless you need to) to prevent system
instability or other unexpected results. Inadequately altering the settings
may result in system’s failure to boot. If this occurs, try to clear the CMOS
values and reset the board to default values. (Refer to the “Load Optimized
Defaults” section in this chapter or introductions of the battery/clear CMOS
jumper in Chapter 1 for how to clear the CMOS values.)
2-1 Startup Screen
The following startup Logo screen will appear when the computer boots.
Function Keys
There are two different BIOS modes as follows and you can use the
· When the system is not stable as usual, select the Load Optimized Defaults
item to set your system to its defaults. · The BIOS Setup menus described in

Before you begin, please prepare the following items: · At least two SATA hard
drives or SSDs. (Note 1) (To ensure optimal performance, it is recommended
that you
use two hard drives with identical model and capacity). (Note 2)
· Windows setup disc. · Motherboard driver disc. · A USB thumb drive.
Configuring the Onboard SATA Controller
A. Installing SATA hard drive(s) in your computer Install the hard drives/SSDs
in the Intel® Chipset controlled connectors on the motherboard. Then connect
the power connectors from your power supply to the hard drives.
B. Configuring SATA controller mode in BIOS Setup Make sure to configure the
SATA controller mode correctly in system BIOS Setup. Steps: 1. Turn on your
computer and press
to SettingsIO PortsSATA And RST Configuration, make sure SATA Controller(s) is
enabled. To create RAID, set SATA Mode Selection to Intel RST Premium With
Intel Optane System Acceleration. Then save the settings and restart your
computer. Note: When using a PCIe SSD, make sure to set the Use RST Legacy
OROM item under SettingsIO PortsSATA And RST Configuration to Disabled and RST
Control PCIe Storage Devices to Manual. Then depending the M.2 connector you
use, set the corresponding PCIe Storage Dev On Port XX item to RST Controlled.
Finally, save the settings and exit BIOS Setup. If you want
to use NVMe PCIe SSDs to configure RAID, make sure to set NVMe RAID mode to
Enabled. 2. To use the EZ RAID feature, follow the steps in “C-1.” To
configure UEFI RAID, follow the steps in “C-2.” To
enter the legacy RAID ROM, refer to “C-3” for more information. Finally, save
the settings and exit BIOS Setup.
The BIOS Setup menus described in this section may differ from the exact
settings for your motherboard. The actual BIOS Setup menu options you will see
shall depend on the motherboard you have and the BIOS version.
C-1. Using EZ RAID GIGABYTE motherboards provide you with the EZ RAID feature, allowing you to quickly configure a RAID array with simplified steps. Steps:
- After restarting the computer, enter the BIOS Setup and go to Settings.
Press
on the EZ RAID item.
Select the type of hard drives you use for RAID in the Type tab and then press. 2. Go to the Mode tab to select a RAID level. RAID levels supported include RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, and RAID 5 (the selections available depend on the number of the hard drives being installed). Then press to move to the Create tab. Click Proceed to begin. (Note 1) An M.2 PCIe SSD cannot be used to set up a RAID set either with an M.2 SATA SSD or a SATA hard drive. (Note 2) Refer to “Internal Connectors” for the installation notices for the M.2 and SATA connectors. – 37 –
3. After completing, you’ll be brought back to the Intel(R) Rapid Storage
Technology screen. Under RAID Volumes you can see the new RAID volume. To see
more detailed information, press
C-2. UEFI RAID Configuration Steps: 1. In BIOS Setup, go to Boot and set CSM
Support to Disabled. Save the changes and exit BIOS Setup. 2. After the system
reboot, enter BIOS Setup again. Then enter the SettingsIO PortsIntel(R) Rapid
Storage
Technology sub-menu. 3. On the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology menu, press
Install the RAID driver and operating system
With the correct BIOS settings, you are ready to install the operating system.
Installing the Operating System As some operating systems already include
Intel® RAID driver, you do not need to install separate RAID driver during the
Windows installation process. After the operating system is installed, we
recommend that you install all required drivers from the motherboard driver
disc using “Xpress Install” to ensure system performance and compatibility. If
the operating system to be installed requires that you provide additional RAID
driver during the OS installation process, please refer to the steps below: 1.
Copy the IRST folder under Boot in the driver disc to your USB thumb drive. 2.
Boot from the Windows setup disc and perform standard OS installation steps.
When the screen requesting
you to load the driver appears, select Browse. 3. Then browse to the USB flash
drive and select the location of the driver. The location of the driver is as
follows: IRSTf6flpy-x64 4. When a screen as shown, select Intel(R) Chipset
SATA/PCIe RST Premium Controller and click Next to
load the driver and continue the OS installation.
3-2 Installing an Intel® OptaneTM Memory
System Requirements 1. Intel® OptaneTM memory 2. The OptaneTM memory must have
at least 16 GB capacity, and it must have equal or smaller capacity than
the hard drive/SSD to be accelerated. 3. The OptaneTM memory cannot be used to
accelerate an existing RAID array; the accelerated hard drive/SSD
cannot be included in a RAID array. 4. The hard drive/SSD to be accelerated
must be a SATA hard drive or M.2 SATA SSD. 5. The hard drive/SSD to be
accelerated can be a system drive or data drive. The system drive must be GPT
formatted and have Windows 10 64-bit (or later version) installed on it. The
data drive must also be GPT formatted. 6. The motherboard driver disc
Installation Guidelines A-1: Installation in AHCI mode If the SATA controller
has been configured in AHCI mode, please follow the steps below: 1. After
entering the operating system, insert the motherboard driver disc into your
optical drive. On the Xpress
Install screen, select Intel(R) Optane(TM) Memory System Acceleration (Note)
to install. Follow the on-screen instructions to continue. When completed,
restart the system. 2. After re-entering the operating system, follow the on-
screen instructions to complete the settings, and then the Intel® OptaneTM
Memory application will appear automatically. If you install more than one
OptaneTM memory, please select which one you are going to use. Then select
which drive to be accelerated. Click Enable. All data on the OptaneTM memory
will be erased. Make sure you back up the data before continuing. Follow the
on-screen instructions to proceed. When completed, restart the system. 3.
Launch the Intel® OptaneTM Memory application from the Start menu and make
sure the Intel® OptaneTM Memory has been enabled. (The SATA controller mode is
changed to Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration from AHCI
mode. DO NOT change your SATA controller mode back to AHCI. Doing so will
cause the OptaneTM memory unable to function properly.) 4. If you want to
