CHAPTER 4: RAID FUNCTIONS
4.1 OPERA TIO N SYSTEM
z Supports Windows XP Home/Prof es sional Edition, and Windows 2000 Prof essional.
4.2 RAID ARRAYS
RAID supports the following 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 t echni ques for mirrori ng data.
many applications.
4.3 HOW RAIDWORKS
RAID 0:
The controller “ stripes ” data across multipl e drives in a RAID 0 array sy stem. It breaks
up a large file into smaller blocks and performs disk reads and writes across multiple
drives in parall el. The size of each blo ck is determined by the stripe size parameter,
which you set during the creation of the RAID set based on the system environment. This
technique redu ces overall disk access time and offers high b andwidth.
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 dat a throughput, or any
env ironment that does not require f ault tolerance.
Benefits: prov ides inc reased data throughput, especially f or large files. No
capacity loss penalty f or parity.
Drawbacks: Does not deliver any f ault tolerance. If any drive in t he array
f ails, all data is lost.
Fault Tolerance: No.

Block 1
Block 3
Block 5
Block 2
Block 4
Block 6
P4M900-M7 SE/P4M890-M7 TE
RAID 1:
Every read and w rite is actually carried out in parallel across 2 disk driv es in a RAID 1
array system. The mirrored (backup) copy of th e data can reside on the 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 corrup ted or becomes un availabl e because of a hardware 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 dat abases or any other applicat ion that
requires f ault tolerance and minimal c apacity.
Benefits: Prov ides 100% data redundancy. Should one drive f ail, the
controller switches to the other drive.
Drawbacks: Requires 2 drives for t he storage space of one drive.
Perf ormance is impaired during driv e rebuilds.
Fault Tolerance: Yes.

Overclock Panel cont ains these features :
a. “Auto-Overclock”:
User can click thi s button and [Wa rpSpee der™ III] will set the be st
and stable performance and frequency automatically. A warning
dialog as below will show up to notify you that the system may
become unstable, click on “OK” to proceed.
Then [WarpS peede r™ III] uti lity will exe cute a series of testi ng
un til system fail . T hen system will do fail-sa fe reboot by using
Watchdog function. After reboot, launch the [WarpSpeeder™ III]
utility again and the utility will load the previously verified best and
stable frequency.
b. “Verify”:
If you use the “Manual Adjust” bar to adjust the CPU frequency,
then you can click this button and [WarpSpeeder™ III] will proceed
a testing for current frequency. If the testing is ok, then the current
frequency will be saved into system registry. If the testing fails,
system will do a fail-safe re bootin g. After reboot, the
[WarpSpeeder™ III] utility will restore to the hardware default
setting.
Warning:
Manually overclock is potentially dangerous, especially when the
ov erclocking percentage is over 110 %. W e strongly recommend you
v erify ev ery speed you overcloc k by click the Verify button. Or, you can
just click Auto ov erc lock button and let [WarpSpeeder™ III]
automatically gets t he best result f or y ou.
c. “V3 Engine”/“V6 Engine”/“V9 Engine”:
Provide user the ability to do real-time overclock adjustment.
d. “Recovery”:
Click this button and the [WarpSpeeder™ III] utility will restore all
values to the hardware default setting.

5. About Panel
Click the “about” button in Main Panel, the button will be highlighted
and the About Panel will show up as the following figure.
In this panel, you can get model name and detail information in hints
of all the chipset that are related to overclocking. You can also get
the the version number of [WarpSpeeder™ III] utility.
Note :
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.

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
modify the basic s ystem configuratio n and save thes e settings to CMOS RAM.
The power of CMOS RAM is supplied b y a battery so that it retains the Setup
info rmation when the po wer is turned off.
Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) det ermines what a compute r can do without
accessing programs from a disk. This system controls most of the input and
outp ut devic es s uch as ke yboard, mouse, serial ports a nd d isk d rives. BI OS
activates at the first stage of the booting process, load ing and executing the
operating system. Some additional features, such as virus and password
protection or chipset fine-tuning op tions are also included in BIOS.

7 PnP/PCI Configurations
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal
Computer Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O devices to operate at
speeds nearing the speed of the CPU itself uses when communicating with its
own special co mponents. This section covers some very technical items and it is
strongly recommended that only experienced users should make any c hanges to
the default settings.
Figure 7: PnP/PCI Configurations
PNP OS Installed
When set to YES, BIOS will o nly initialize the PnP cards used for the boot
sequence (VGA, IDE, SCSI). The rest of the cards will be initialized by the PnP
operating s ystem like Window™ 95. When set to NO, BIOS will initialize all
the PnP cards. For non-PnP operating systems (DOS, Netware™), this option
must set to NO.

Reset Configuration Data
The s ystem BI OS s uppo rts the PnP feature whic h requires the system to reco rd
whic h res ources are as signed and protects resourc es f rom conflict.
Every peripheral devic e has a nod e, which is c alled ESCD. This nod e records
whic h resourc es are assigned to it. T he system needs to record and update ES CD
to the memory locat ions. T hese locations are reserved in the sys tem BIOS. If the
Disabled (default) option is chosen, the system‘s ESCD will update only when
the new c onfiguration varies from the las t one. If the Enab led option is chos en,
the system is forc ed to update ESCDs and then is automatically s et to the
“Disabled” mode.
The above settings will be sho wn on the screen o nly if “Manual” is chosen for
the resources contro lled by function.
Legacy is the term, which s ignifies that a resourc e is ass igned to the IS A Bus
