Asrock MARVELL SATA3 RAID User Manual

Overview

The Marvell RAID Utility (MRU) is a browser-based graphical user interface (GUI)
tool for the Marvell RAID adapter. It supports IO Controllers (IOC) and
RAID-On-Chip (ROC) Controllers. RAID technology allows you to create arrays and
virtual disks using one or more physical disk drives in combination in order to
achieve increased disk fault tolerance and improved performance.

The Marvell RAID adapter supports the following RAID levels:

• RAID 0 (striping). Multiple drives can read and write data in parallel to increase
performance.

• RAID 1 (disk mirroring). Two disks mirrored to each other.
