Overview

An IO Processor (IOP) is similar to an IOC, except that it contains an on-board CPU that enables hardware RAID functionality. At this time, MSU supports the Marvell 88SE91xx 6 Gbps SATA RAID IOP can create and manage RAID 0 and RAID 1 virtual disks.

Note: MSU v4.1.1503 is an early build that does not offer complete support for 88SE91xx IOP. The Marvell BIOS Utility (MBU) for 88SE91xx offers more flexibility for creating and managing virtual disks. For more information, see MBU for 88SE91xx IO Processor (IOP). Check the OEM website for an updated version of MSU that offers enhanced support for the 88SE91xx.
