Which RAID do you want? In case you want RAID 0, 1, 5 or 10 you could use the RAID controller on the board. I never have done this myself but i think this is helpful:

If you need help with computers it is always good to write which system you have. A good linux command that gives you a lot of usefull and structured data (without ip- and mac address) is 'inxi -F'.

Hello,

To answer your question, if the board is within warranty you will need to cover the shipping costs to send the board to Intel. To validate the warranty please let us know the PBA and serial number located on a white sticker on the board:
