BIOS CONFIGURATION

3.7.5.11 Controller Fan Detection

The ARC-1882ix series incorporate one big passive heatsink at-

taching a active cooling fan that allows the hot devices such as a

ROC and expander chip to keep cool. In addition, newer systems

already have enough air ow blowing over the controller. If the

systems have provided enough adequate cooling for ROC and

expander chip, user can remove the attaching fan on the big

passive heat sink.

The “Controller Fan Detection” function is available in the rm-

ware for detecting the cooling fan function on the ROC which

uses the active cooling fan. When using the passive heatsink

on the controller, disable the “Controller Fan Detection” func-

tion through this McBIOS RAID manager setting. The following

screen shot shows how to change the McBIOS RAID manager

setting to disable the warning beeper function. (This function

is not available in the web browser setting.)

3.7.5.12 Auto Activate Raid Set

When some of the disk drives are removed in power off state

or boot up stage, the RAID set state will change to “Incomplete

State”. But if a user wants to automatically continue to work

while the 6Gb/s SAS RAID controller is powered on, then user

can set the “Auto Activate Raid Set” option to “Enabled”. The

RAID state will change to “Degraded Mode” while it powers on.
