High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The IT8212, or more correctly the IT8212F, is a low-end Parallel ATA controller designed by the Taiwanese company Integrated Technology Express Inc., more commonly known as ITE Inc. Depending on the implemented BIOS and configuration the IT8212F functions in either a RAID or an ATAPI mode, supporting up to four devices using dual channels. The raid mode only supports IDE Hard Disk Drives an includes RAID 0, RAID 1, Raid 0+1 and JBOD, along with a "normal" mode that essentially acts as a standard Hard Disk controller.
