RC200 FAQ

We suggest that using RC-200 Raid controller for followings:

(1). We are using more than one hard drive.

(2). We want to speed up the performance with raid setting on two hard drives.

(3). We want backup data with RAID setting on two hard drives.

We've contacted the FAE of the Silicon Image to ask the boot issue for the RC-200 controller. And

he tell us the fact: The HDD/ODD attached on RC-200 can be shown in the system/motherboard BIOS's

boot priority list (It's able to show the ODD/HDD model name). If we've set the motherboard's BIOS to

boot from a device (The hard drive or CD-ROM/DVD-ROM attached on RC-200) as first priority boot

device, after power on system, the computer will boot from the RC-200. If not, the issue comes from the

Motherboard's BIOS, that's not from the RC-200.

And if after inserting the RC-200 into the PCI slot and there are some PATA devices(HDD or CD-ROMs)

attached to the RC-200, but these PATA devices haven't boot feature(It means the hard drives haven't

Windows OS installed, or there are no bootable CDs in the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive). As the result, if

the computer does not boot from the bootable devices attached IDE/SATA controller on the

motherboard. These phenomena also prove the issue comes from the Motherboard's BIOS.
