Boot is from standalone SATA drive (so, not in raid).</P><P>I could enter raid bios and configure arrays, but that's all. Controller and mobo has latest BIOS.</P><P>No operation system could work normally. As for linux, it hangs always when trying to load raid driver (megaraid_sys).</P><P>Tried a lot of Linuxes (Centos, Ubuntu, and also RH5, which is "supported") - always the same result (hangs).</P><P>The Windows 7 seems to be working ok (only with latest driver), but when I try to format raid partition, system hangs also.</P> Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:52:41 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Xeon-Processor-and-Server/problems-with-RS2WC080-Raid-controller/m-p/360987#M7310 idata 2012-12-03T13:52:41Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Xeon-Processor-and-Server/problems-with-RS2WC080-Raid-controller/m-p/360988#M7311 <P>I suggest you update to the latest <A href="http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?ProductID=3217&amp;DwnldID=21725&amp;lang=eng&amp;iid=dc_rss">http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?ProductID=3217&amp;DwnldID=21725&amp;lang=eng&amp;iid=dc_rss</A> RAID Firmware first.

As I wrote, we already have the latest firmware. For tested motherboards, this list a bit outdated and only small number of listed mobos aviailable in my country.</P><P>Could Intel provide support with current motherboard (Asus) ?</P> Thu, 06 Dec 2012 14:42:03 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Xeon-Processor-and-Server/problems-with-RS2WC080-Raid-controller/m-p/360989#M7312 idata 2012-12-06T14:42:03Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Xeon-Processor-and-Server/problems-with-RS2WC080-Raid-controller/m-p/360990#M7313 <P>Support would be limited...
