What's the difference between W510's system boards?

#1 Post by Likvid » Mon Aug 22, 2011 5:09 am

I have a fully loaded W510 but i am missing the RAID option which i really want and i thought all W510 boards had hardware RAID built-in.

What is the difference on the system boards between them?

Is it a major difference or something you could modify on a non-RAID board?

You can see the part numbers for the Raid and non-Raid W510 boards here. You cannot make the modification. Get a new systemboard if you want raid.
