Installation and Setup 2.1 Installation Instructions The Adaptec SAS RAID Controllers Installation and User's Guide contains complete installation information for the controllers and drivers, as well as complete instructions for all utilities. The Adaptec Storage Manager User's Guide Page 2 readme.txt contains complete installation information for the Adaptec Storage Manager software. 2.2 MaxIQ SSD Cache Performance Kit Setup o The Adaptec MaxIQ SSD Cache Performance Kit supports Adaptec MaxIQ-branded/Intel X25-E Solid State Disks only. o You can install a maximum of 4 SSDs on a controller for MaxIQ caching. o Before connecting the MaxIQ SSDs to your controller, install the latest firmware, driver software and Adaptec Storage Manager (ASM), as described in the manual. Shut down the system, then connect the SSDs to one of the SATA/SAS ports on your controller following these steps: 1. Observe the following precautions: o Keep the drive in the protective anti-static container until you are ready to install the SSD in your server. o Handle the SSD with care. Do not touch the connectors. o Do not remove the encasement or disassemble the SSD; such actions void the warranty. 2. Plug the SSD into an array that is connected to a Series 2, Series 5, or Series 5Z Adaptec Controller. Do NOT plug the SSD into a blank SATA slot on the motherboard; the controller will not recognize it. 3. For servers with a standard 2.5-inch drive tray, install the SSD directly into the tray. If your server does not have a standard 2.5-inch drive tray, use a bracket/SLED which enables it to fit properly. (SSD hot-plug is supported.) o After connecting the SSDs to your controller, use either the CTRL+A/BIOS utility or ASM to initialize the SSD(s) and add one or more SSDs to the MaxIQ pool. Create a RAID array or Simple Volume with read caching enabled, then enable MaxIQ caching on the array. (See the user's guide for details on these procedures.) 2.3 Power Management Setup You must use a compatible combination of Adaptec Storage Manager and controller firmware and driver software to use the power management feature. All software components must support power management. You can download the latest controller firmware and drivers from the Adaptec Web site at 2.4 Linux Setup Before installing the Linux operating system on a logical drive, Adaptec recommends clearing (removing) old data first. If you do not remove old data prior to installation, the OS may no...
