No, that means you're setting those ports to "IDE" / "Legacy" / "Compatibility" mode. There might be another option labelled "RAID", activating the software/pseudo-RAID firmware in the motherboard's BIOS, but you'll want to select "AHCI". It's what everybody not running the latest PCIe/M.2 NVMe SSD cards should be using. Also, run 'lsmod | grep ahci' on your old server; in case it's loaded you'll have the least trouble switching mainboards because it's the most compatible standard. --byte
