HighPoint RocketRAID 600L HBA

HighPoint 2nd Generation SATA 6Gb/s PCI-E 2.0 RAID HBA’s

HighPoint’s RocketRAID 600L Series HBA’s are the Industry’s most affordable, high-performance, SATA

6Gb/s RAID HBA’s, and are ideal for desktop PC’s and workstations. These Second Generation SATA 6Gb/s

host controllers utilize a PCI-Express 2.0 host bus interface, HighPoint's Industry-proven RAID engine, and

support a wide-range of single-disk and RAID configurations including 0, 1, 5, 10 and JBOD.

RocketRAID600L HBA’s are fully backwards compatible with SATA 3Gb/s devices, PCI-Express 1.0 and 2.0

motherboards, and are compliant with major PC operating systems including Windows 8, and 7.

Each RocketRAID 600L Series HBA’s directly supports up to 4 SATA devices, and up to 20 when used in

conjunction with port multiplier storage devices. For maximum performance, attach SATA hard drives and

SSD’s directly to the RocketRAID 600’s SATA and eSATA ports. To maximize storage capacity, use the

RocketRAID 600 with port multiplier storage chassis and external disk enclosures.

The HighPoint RAID Management Software provides a user friendly interface to create, manage and

maintain your storage solutions.

4.3 Installing the RocketRAID 600L Host Adapter

Note: Make sure the system is powered-off before installing the RocketRAID host adapter.

The RocketRAID 600L series HBA may include both standard and low-profile brackets. It may be necessary

to attach the low-profile bracket in place of the standard bracket, depending upon the chassis design.

1. Open the system chassis and locate an unused PCI-E (2.0/1.0) (x4, x8, x16) slot or (3.0) (x16) slot.

2. Remove the PCI-E slot cover.

3. Gently insert the RocketRAID 600L HBA into the PCI-E slot, and secure the bracket to the system

chassis.

4. After installing the adapter, attach the hard disks or backplane enclosure to the host adapter using the

SATA cabels or eSATA cables.

Note: Many server-level chassis include hard-drive hot-swap bays. For these system chassis, cables

are attached to the chassis backplane, rather than directly to each individual hard drive. Consult the

chassis manual for proper installation procedures.

5. Close and secure the system chassis.

4.4 Verifying Installation

Once the host adapter and hard drives have been installed into the chassis, boot-up the system to verify

that the hardware is properly recognized.

1. Power on the system. If the system detects the presence of the adapter, the RocketRAID BIOS Utility

will be displayed during boot up.

2. Press “Ctrl+H” key combination to access the RocketRAID 600L adapter’s BIOS Utility.
