TA drives The installation procedure differs depending on whether you wish to have the operating system installed on a RAID array or on a separate non RAID drive See the instructions below for details Serial ATA SATA Serial ATA SATA is a physical storage interface that employs a single cable with a minimum of four wires to create a point to point connection between devices This connection is a serial link that supports a SATA transfer rate from 300 MBps The serial cables used in SATA are thinner than the traditional cables used in Parallel ATA PATA and can extend up to one meter in length compared to only 40 cm for PATA cables Overall SATA provides better functionality than PATA Installing the OS SATA Driver Before installing the OS operating system and SATA RAID driver you must decide if you wish to have the operating system installed as part of a bootable RAID array or installed to a separate non RAID hard drive If on a separate drive you may install the driver either during or after the OS installation If you wish to have the OS on a SATA RAID array you must follow the procedure below and install the driver during the OS installation Building a Driver Diskette You must first build a driver diskette from the Supermicro CD ROM that was included with the system You will have to create this disk on a computer that is already running and with the OS installed Building a Driver Diskette 1 Insert the CD into your
