Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 THOL 1. Introduction Introduction This document provides users of the Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 AND RS2SG244 with a guide to the operating systems, server boards, chassis, disk drives, and other peripherals that Intel tested for use with this RAID controller. This document will be updated as additional testing is performed, or until the Intel® RAID controller is no longer in production.
Introduction Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 THOL Intel will provide support to customers who experience issues with the integrated controllers due to the installation or functionality of an operating system only if a driver is available. Intel does not provide support for issues related to the use of add-in adapters or peripherals installed in the server system with an operating system that received only basic installation testing.
Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 THOL Introduction Intel will go through some of the steps to achieve certification to ensure its customers do not encounter problems. The actual certification is the responsibility of the customer. Note: Intel does not provide a support commitment for operating systems, adapter cards, and peripherals not listed in this document. Intel will consider requests for support on a case-bycase basis. 1.
Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 THOL Firmware Configurations 2. Firmware Configurations The following table lists the tested controller and firmware configurations. This document will be updated with additional configurations as new revisions of the Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 AND RS2SG244 or firmware versions for those controllers are released. Each configuration is assigned an identifier number which is referenced in the tables throughout this document.
Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 THOL 3. Operating Systems Operating Systems The following table provides a list of supported operating systems for the Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 AND RS2SG244 . Each operating system was tested for compatibility with Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 AND RS2SG244 configuration listed in Chapter 2. Operating systems are only supported in the specified base system configuration(s) with which they were tested.

Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 THOL 5. Enclosures, PCI Adapters, and Peripherals Enclosures, PCI Adapters, and Peripherals The testing of enclosures, add-in cards, and peripherals was performed on the Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 AND RS2SG244 by Intel labs, independent test labs, or the vendor. Compatibility and stress testing was performed with the latest version of an operating system available at the time of testing.
Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 THOL Enclosures, PCI Adapters, and Peripherals 5.1 Internal Storage for RS2WG160 and RS2SG244 Note: The enclosures are listed only if they were attached to the Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 AND RS2SG244 during testing. There is no out-of-band enclosure management for a second backplane, so the only way to get enclosure management with two backplanes is to use at least one expander backplane with the Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 AND RS2SG244 .
