3.7.5.5 Background Task Priority
The “Background Task Priority” is a relative indication of how
much time the controller devotes to a rebuild operation. The
SATA RAID controller allows the user to choose the rebuild prior-
ity (Ultralow, Low, Normal, High) to balance volume set access
and rebuild tasks appropriately.
