After you attach your NVMe SSD to SSD7505 controller, you can use SSD7505 EFI
Utility to configure your NVMe SSD as RAID arrays, or just use them as single disks.
Before installation, you must remove all the NVMe SSD, which are not physically
attached to SSD7505 controller, from your system.

SSD7505 only support EFI boot. If you have other SCSI adapters installed, you must
make sure the SSD7505 controller EFI will be loaded firstly. If not, try to move it to
another PCI slot. Otherwise you may be unable to boot up your system.
Step 2 Check System EFI Settings

will first boot from EFI CDROM, and then from SSD7505 RAID. Refer to your
motherboard EFI manual to see how to set boot sequence.

EFI CDROM. After you finish installation, set SSD7505 RAID as the first boot device to
boot up the system.
