What am I seeing?
I'm unable to create RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) arrays through RAID BIOS and the Intel® RAID Web Console 2/3 Utility with Intel® Integrated RAID Module RMS3VC160 or Intel® RAID Controller RS3UC080J
Why am I seeing it?
The Intel® Integrated RAID Module RMS3VC160 and Intel® RAID Controller RS3UC080J support passthrough mode only. This means the disk drives attached to these controllers are visible to the operating system (OS) as individual drives, and the OS has direct access to these drives. This is also known as the JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks) or IT (Initiator-Target) mode.
Other Intel® RAID Controllers and Intel® Storage Controllers that support passthrough mode only are:
How to fix it?
You can't configure RAID arrays on the controllers mentioned above. You can find the list of current Intel products that support configuring RAID arrays.
