SATA hardware RAID is not supported on Linux systems. The Linux kernel, with built-in software RAID,
provides excellent functionality and performance and is a good alternative to hardware-based RAID. Please
visit:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00060684/c00060684.pdf
for RAID
capabilities with Linux.
All RAID arrays must be less than 2 TB, except for SATA RAID 0 Data Arrays.
