Information ................................11

The Ultra ATA/133 PCI Card (the PCI Card) is a single-chip PCI to ATA
controller card. It accepts host commands through the PCI bus,
processes them, and transfers data between the host and ATA
devices. It can be used to control two independent ATA channels:
primary and secondary. Each channel has its own ATA bus and will
support up to two ATA/ATAPI devices for a maximum of four devices.
The PCI Card supports up to a 133Mbps transfer rate exceeding that
which is specified in ATA/ATAP1-6.

OVERVIEW

Key Benefit

The PCI Card is the perfect single-chip solution for designs
based on chipsets without an integrated ATA host controller, or
designs that need to expand the number of ATA channels to
accommodate the growing number of storage peripherals with
ATA interface. Any system with a PCI bus interface can simply
add an Ultra ATA/133 interface by adding the PCI Card and
loading the driver into the system.

The PCI Card comes with drivers for DOS, Windows 98,
Windows Millennium Edition (Me), Windows NT 4.0, Windows
2000, and Windows XP. It is also fully compatible with default
IDE drivers from Microsoft.

Windows 95/98/Me Driver Installation

1. Make sure your computer is completely powered down by

powering off the PC and unplugging the power cord.
Remove the outer cover.

2. Insert the PCI Card into a PCI slot that supports bus-master
DMA. (Your computer’s manual should identify the
bus-master slots.) Connect your hard drive(s) to the
controller card at this time. Close the case and plug in
the power cord.

3. Restart your computer and insert the installation CD into
your CD-ROM drive.

4. The PCI Card on-board BIOS will automatically detect the
drives connected to it once power-up is complete.

5. When your Windows operating system has finished loading,
the PCI Card will be detected and the “New Hardware
Wizard” will detect “PCI Raid Controller”. Click “Next”.

6. Select “Search for best driver for your device
(Recommended)”. Click “Next” (for Windows Me, choose
“Automatically search for the best driver [Recommended]”).

7. Select “Specify a location” and enter the path to the driver
folder on your CD-ROM drive (typically “D:\Driver” where
“D:” is the letter of your CD-ROM drive).

INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)

8. Your Windows operating system will locate the driver

for “Silicon Image SIL0680 Ultra Medley ATA Raid
Controller”. Click “Next”.

9. Click “Finish” to complete the installation.

10. Restart your computer.
