CHAPTER 4: NVIDIA RAID FUNCTIONS

4.1 OPERATION SYST EM

z Supports Windows XP Home/Prof essional Edition, and Windows 2000 Prof essional.

4.2 RAID ARRAYS

NVRAID supports the f ollowing ty pes of RAID arrays:

RAID 0: RAID 0 defines a disk striping scheme that improves disk read and write times for

RAID 1: RAID 1 defines techniques for mirroring data.
RAID 0+1: RAID 0+1 combines the techniques used in RAID 0 and RAID 1.
RAID 5: RAID 5 provides fault tolerance and better utilization of disk capacity.

many applications.

4.3 HOW RAID WORKS

RAID 0:

The controller “ stripes” data across multiple d ri ves in a RAID 0 array system. It breaks
up a large file into smaller blocks and performs disk reads and writes across multiple
drives in parallel. The size of each block is determined by the stripe size parameter,

which you set during the creation of the RAID set based on the system environment. This
technique reduces ov erall disk access time and o ffers high bandwidth.

Fea tures and Be nefits

 Drives: Minimum 1, and maximum is up to 6 or 8. Depending on the

platform.

 Uses: Intended for non-critical data requiring high data throughput, or any

env ironment that does not require f ault tolerance.

 Benefits: prov ides increased data throughput, especially f or large files. No

capacity loss penalty f or parity.

 Drawbacks: Does not deliver any fault tolerance. If any drive in the array

f ails, all data is lost.

 Faul t Tolerance : No.

Block 3
Block 5

Bl ock 2
Block 4
Block 6

Motherboard Manual

RAID 1:

Every read and write is actu ally carried out in parallel across 2 disk drives in a RAID 1
array system. The mirrored (backup) copy of the data can reside on th e same disk or on a
second redundant drive in the array. RAID 1 provides a hot-standby copy of data if the

active volume or d rive is corrupted or b ecomes unavailable because of a hardw are failure.
RAID techniques can be applied for high-availability solutions, or as a form of automatic

backup that eliminates tedious manual backups to more expensive and less reliable
me d i a .

Fea tures and Be nefits

 Drives: Minimum 2, and maximum is 2.
 Uses: RAID 1 is ideal for small databases or any other application that

requires f ault tolerance and minimal capacity.

 Benefits: Prov ides 100% data redundancy. Should one driv e f ail, the

controller switches to the other drive.

 Drawbacks: Requires 2 driv es for the storage space of one driv e.

Perf ormance is impaired during driv e rebuilds.

 Faul t Tolerance : Yes.

NF560-A2G/NF520-A 2G

RAID 0+1:

RAID 0 drives can be mirrored using RAID 1 techniques. Resulting in a RAID 0+1
solution for improved performance plus resiliency.

Fea tures and Be nefits

 Drives: Minimum 4, and maximum is 6 or 8, depending on the platform.
 Benefits: Optimizes for both fault tolerance and perf ormance, allowing for

automatic redundancy. May be simultaneously used with other RAID lev els
in an array, and allows for spare disks.

 Drawbacks: Requires twice the available disk space f or data redundancy,

the same as RAID level 1.

Motherboard Manual

RAID 5:

RAID 5 stripes both data and parity information across three or more drives. It writes
data and parity blocks across all the drives in the array. Fault tolerance is maintained by
ensuring that the parity information for any given block of data is placed on a different

drive from those used to store the data itself.

Fea tures and Be nefits

 Drives: Minimum 3 .
 Uses: RAID 5 is recommended for transaction processing and general

purpose service.

 Benefits: An ideal combination of good performance, good fault tolerance,

and high capacity and storage effic iency.

 Drawbacks: Individual block data transfer rate same as a single disk. W rite

perf ormance can be CPU intensiv e.

CHAPTER 6: WARPSPEEDE R™ I II

6.1 INTRODUCTION

[WarpSpeeder™ III], a new powerful control utility, features three
user-friendly functions including Overclock Manager, Overvoltage

Manager, and Hardware Monitor.
With the Overclock Manager, users can easily adjust the frequency they

prefer or they can get the best CPU performance with just one click. The
Overvoltage Manager, on the other hand, helps to power up CPU core

voltage and Memory voltage. The cool Hardware Monitor smartly indicates
the temperatures, voltage and CPU fan speed as well as the chipset

information. Also, in the About panel, you can get detail descriptions about
BIOS model and chipsets. In addition, the frequency status of CPU,

memory, VGA and PCI along with the CPU speed are synchronically
shown on our main panel.

Moreover, to protect users' computer systems if the setting is not
appropriate when testing and results in system fail or hang,

[WarpSpeeder™ III] technology assures the system stability by
automatically rebooting the computer and then restart to a speed that is

either the original system speed or a suitable one.

Because the overclock, overvoltage, and hardware monitor features
are controlled by several separate chipset, [WarpSpeeder™ III]

divide these features to separate panels. If one chipset is not on
board, the correlative button in Main panel will be disabled, but will

not interfere other panels’ functions. This property can make
[WarpSpeeder™ III] utility more robust.

BIOS Setup

Introduction

The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the Phoenix-Award™
BIOS Setup program on this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to
mod if y the bas ic syste m configuratio n and save these s ettings to CMOS R AM.
The power of CMOS RAM is supplied by a battery so that it retains the Setup
info rmation when t he power is t urned off.
Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) determines what a computer can do without
accessing programs from a disk. This system controls most of the input and
outp ut devices such as keybo ard, mouse, s erial ports and dis k drives. BIOS
activates at the first stage of the boo t ing p rocess, loading and executing the
operating system. Some additional features, such as virus and password
protection or chipset fine-tuning options are also included in BIOS.
The rest of this manual will to guide you through the options and settings in
BIOS Setup.

Reset Configuration Data

The s yst em BIOS s uppo rts the PnP feature which requir es the system to record
whic h reso urc es are ass igned and protects resourc es from conflict.
Every peripheral devic e has a node, whic h is called ESCD. This nod e reco rds
whic h resourc es are assigned to it. T he sys tem needs to record a nd upda te ESCD
to the memory loc atio ns. These locations are rese rved in the system BIOS. If the
Disabled (default) option is chosen, the system‘s ESCD will update only when
the ne w co nfigur ation va ries from the last one. If the Enabled option is c hosen,
the s ys tem is forced to update ESCDs and then is automatic ally set to the
“Disabled ” mode.
The above settings will be shown on the screen only if “Manual” is chosen for
the res ourc es contro lled by func tion.
Legac y is the term, whic h signifies that a resource is assigned to the ISA Bus

is ass igned to the PCI Bus or provides for ISA PnP add-on cards and
peripherals.
The Choices: Disabled (default), Enabled.
