C h a p t e r 2 Hardware Setup

If your motherboard has already been installed in your computer you may still

need to refer to this chapter if you plan to upgrade your system's hardware.

This motherboard is electrostatic sensitive. Do not touch without wearing proper safety gadget and make sure to disconnect the power cable from the power source before performing any work on your motherboard. Not doing so may result in electrical shock!

2.1 Installing a CPU Processor in Socket A

The Socket A, designed for AMD Duron/Athlon/Athlon XP processors, has been incorporated as a standard motherboard specification. To insert your CPU into Socket A please do the following:

1. Locate a cut edge on the top surface of the CPU, which is close to one of the CPU corners. The same corner will also be cut off, leaving a noticeable notch in the CPU's corner. These markings indicate Pin 1 on the CPU.

2. Pull up the lever of Socket A so that it is perpendicular with the surface of the motherboard. Gently insert the CPU with Pin 1 at the same corner of Socket A, which is located close to the end of the lever. Allow the weight of the CPU to push itself into place. Do not apply extra pressure as doing so may result in damaging your CPU. Snap the lever back into place.

Installing an AMD approved heat sink with cooling fan is necessary for proper heat dissipation from your CPU. Failing to install these items may result in overheating and possible burn-out of your CPU.

7NJS User’s Guide 5

Notes:

In order to boot up with a newly installed CPU,

2.5 Connector and Jumper Settings

Connectors are used to link the system board with other parts of the system, including the power supply, the keyboard, and the various controllers on the front panel of the system case.

The power supply connector is the last connection to be made while installing a motherboard. Before connecting the power supply, please make sure it is not connected to the power source.

Note

All cables are

PW1 (ATX Power Supply Connector):

The power cord leading from the system's power supply to the external power source must be the very last part connected when assembling a system. The ATX power supply provides a single 20-pin connector interface, which incorporates standard +/-5V, +/-12V, optional 3.3V and Soft-power signals. The Soft-power signal, a 5V trickle supply is continuously supplied when AC power is available. When the system is in the Soft-Off mode, this trickle supply maintains the system in it's minimum power state.

Power-On By Modem:

While in Soft-Off state, if an external modem ring-up signal occurs, the system wakes up and can be remotely accessed. You may enable this function in BIOS's Power Management Setup menu. (See section

3.5

)

Blinking LED in Suspend Mode:

While in Suspend mode, the LED light on the front panel of your computer will flash. Suspend mode is entered by pressing the Override Power Button the Green button on your ATX case, or enabling the Power Management and Suspend Mode options in BIOS's Power Management menu. (See section

security-proof

, pushing

3.5

)

7NJS User’s Guide 11

12 7NJS User’s Guide

Chapter 2

Poly-fuse Over Current Protection:

The poly-fuse protects the system from dangerous voltages that the system might be exposed to via the keyboard or USB connector. In case of such exposure, the poly-fuse will immediately be disconnected from the circuit, just like a normal fuse. After being disconnected for a certain period of time, the poly-fuse will return to its normal state. Then the keyboard or USB connector can function properly again. Unlike conventional fuses, the poly-fuse does not have to be replaced, relieving the user wasted time and inconvenience.

CN1A (Front Panel Connector) A through F:

A. PWR-SW (Over-ride Power Button Connector):

The power button on the ATX chassis can be used as a normal power switch as well as a device to activate Advanced Power Management Suspend mode. This mode is used for saving electricity when the computer is not in use for long periods of time. The Soft-OFF by PWR-BTN function in BIOS's Power Management Setup menu must be set to [

Delay 4 Sec

.] to activate this function.

When the Soft-OFF by PWR-BTN function is enabled, pushing the power button rapidly will switch the system to Suspend mode. Any occurrence of external activities such as pressing a key on the keyboard or moving the mouse will bring the system back to Full-On. Pushing the button while in Full-On mode for more than [

4 seconds

] will switch the system completely off. See

Over-ride Power Button Operation diagram.

Chapter 2

B. P-LED (Power LED Connector):

The power indicator LED shows the system's power status. It is important to pay attention to the correct cables and pin orientation (i.e., not to reverse the order of these two connectors.)

C. G-BTN/G-LED (Green Button Switch/LED Connector):

Some ATX cases provide a Green button switch, which is used to put the system in Suspend mode. In Suspend mode, the power supply to the system is reduced to a trickle, the CPU clock is stopped, and the CPU core is in its minimum power state. The system is woken up whenever the keyboard or mouse is touched. The system resumes in different ways as defined by Power Management Setup screen in BIOS.

For Green LED connector please refer to Section 2.7 CBOX™ 2

PS:

D. RESET (System Reset Switch Connector):

This connector should be connected to the reset switch on the front panel of the system case. The reset switch allows you to restart the system without turning the power off.

E. SPEAKER (Speaker Connector):

This 4-pin connector connects to the case-mounted speaker

F. HD-LED (IDE Activity LED Connector):

The IDE activity LED lights up whenever the system reads/writes to the IDE devices.

FD1 (Floppy Disk Connector)

This connector is used to connect 34 pins of Floppy.

3 . 1 Standard CMOS Setup

The Standard CMOS Setup allows users to configure system components such as hard disk drive, floppy disk drive and video display as well as date, time and boot-up error signaling. This configuration menu should be changed when installing a motherboard for the first time, changing hardware in your system such as the HDD, FDD, video display, or when the CMOS data has been lost or contaminated. Choose the Standard CMOS Setup option from the CMOS Setup Utility menu (Figure 3-1) to display the following screen.

Chapter 3

Halt On:

When the system is powered on, BIOS performs a series of diagnostic tests called POST (Power On Self Test). This function stops the computer if BIOS detects a hardware error. You can tell BIOS to halt on all errors, no errors, or not to halt on specific errors.

3 . 2 Advanced BIOS Features

By choosing the Advanced BIOS Features option from the CMOS Setup Utility menu (Figure 3-1), the screen below is displayed. This sample screen contains the manufacturer's default values for the motherboard.

Introduction

What is the FastTrak 376 RAID controller?

performance RAID solution that adds performance and/or reliability to PC desktops and/or servers using Serial ATA/150, Ultra ATA/133, Ultra ATA/100, Ultra ATA/66, Ultra ATA/33 hard disks.

transfer at about twice the speed of the slowest HDD in the array. A RAID 0 array consisting of four HDDs will transfer at about three times the speed of the slowest HDD in the array.

any disk member fails, it affects the entire array. Performance is better than a single drive since the workload is balanced between the array members. This array type is for high performance systems. Identical drives are recommended for performance as well as data storage efficiency. The disk array data capacity is equal to the number of drive members times the smallest member capacity. For example, one 1GB and three 1.2GB drives will form a 4GB (4 x 1GB) disk array. Stripe Size - a value can be set from 1KB to 1024KB sector size. The size can directly affect performance.

will continue to function. This is called Fault Tolerance. If one drive has a physical sector error, the mirrored drive will continue to function.

With striping, identical drives can read and write data in parallel to increase performance. Mirroring increases read performance through load balancing and elevator sorting while creating a complete backup of your files.

FastTrak 376 striped arrays can double the sustained data transfer rate of Serial ATA/150 and Ultra ATA/133 drives. FastTrak 376 fully supports Serial ATA/150 and Ultra ATA/133 specification of up to 150MB/sec per drive, depending on individual drive specifications.

FastTrak 376 also offers fault tolerant, data redundancy for entry-level network file servers or simply for desktop PC users wanting to continually protect valuable data on their PC. FastTrak 376 offers RAID 1 mirroring (for two drives) to protect data. Should a drive that is part of a mirrored array fail, FastTrak 376 uses the mirrored drive (which contains identical data) to assume all data handling. When a new replacement drive is later installed, FastTrak 376 rebuilds data to the new drive from the mirrored drive to restore fault tolerance.

These 3 channels (it might be channel 3, 4, 5 on MB) that PDC20376 support only connect HDD. FastTrak 376 don’t support ATAPI device. Please move your ATAPI device to onboard IDE channel.

Steps for Installing your Serial ATA/IDE RAID

Step 1: Unpacking Your FastTrak 376

When you receive the FastTrak 376, the package should contain the items listed below:

FastTrak 376 Driver

If ANY of the contents are missing or appear to be damaged, please contact your dealer or distributor immediately.

Warning:

The FastTrak 376 Controller, like other parts of your system, is subject to damage by static electricity. Be sure that you’re properly grounded (Promise recommends that you wear an anti-static strap or touch a grounded object) and that you unplug your system before installing FastTrak 376.

Serial ATA/IDE RAID

Step 2: Installing the Hard Drives

If you wish to include your current bootable Serial or Parallel ATA drive using the Windows NT 4.x, Windows 2000, or Windows XP operating system on your FastTrak 376 Controller.

You MUST install the Windows NT4, 2000, or XP driver software first onto this drive while it is still attached to your existing hard drive controller.

First configure the jumpers of the

Parallel

ATA hard drive you’re preparing to connect to the FastTrak 376 controller using the proper Master, Slave, or Cable-Select settings. For more information, refer to the manual that came with your hard drive.

Second install all of the hard drives into the hard drive bays of your system,

including their power cables.

Then attach the

Parallel

ATA cable to the hard drive(s) and to the Parallel ATA Port connector on the FastTrak 376 controller. The colored edge of the cable indicates pin 1. The blue cable connector attaches to the FastTrak 376.

Finally attach Serial ATA data cable to each hard drive. Then attach the other ends of the cables to one of the Serial ATA ports on the FastTrak 376 controller. All of the connectors are keyed so they will only attach one way.

Note:

FastTrak 376 is a PCI Plug-n-Play (PnP) device. No changes are necessary in the

Motherboard CMOS Setup for resources or drive types in most applications.

Step 3: Auto Setup FastBuild™ Configuration Utility

WARNING:

Before installing the driver into an existing system, backup any necessary data.

Failure to follow this accepted PC practice could result in data loss.

Creating Your Disk Array

You will now use the FastBuild™ Configuration utility to create your array using the attached drives. There are three different scenarios in creating this array. You can create an array for performance, you can create a Security array using new hard drives (recommended), or you can create a Security array using an existing hard drive and a new hard drive.

WARNING:

If creating a Security array using an existing hard drive, backup any necessary

data. Failure to follow this accepted PC practice could result in data loss.

1) Boot your system

If this is the first time you have booted with the FastTrak 376 and drives installed, the

Promise onboard BIOS will display the following screen.

To create an array for best performance, follow these steps:

1. Using the Spacebar, choose [Performance] under the [Optimize Array for] section.

2. Press [Ctrl-Y] keys to Save and create the array.

3. Reboot your system.

4. Once the array has been created, you will need to FDISK and format the array as if it were a new single hard drive.

5. Proceed to Installing Drivers section of the manual.

Creating a Security Array With New Drives

NOTE:

FastTrak 376 permit only two drives to be used for a single Mirrored array

in Auto Setup.

To create an array for data protection using new hard drives, follow these

steps:

1） Using the Spacebar, choose [Security] under the [Optimize Array for] section. 2） Press [Ctrl-Y] keys to save your selection. 3） The window below will appear.

Do you want the disk image to be duplicated to another? (Yes/No) Y - Create and Duplicate N - Create Only

4） Press [N] for the Create Only option. 5） A window will appear almost immediately confirming that your Security array has

been created. Press any key to reboot the system

Array has been created.

6） Proceed with normal FDISK and format procedures as if you had just installed a

new hard drive.

7） Once the arrayed drives have been formatted, proceed to the Installing Driver

chapter on page 8 to install your operating system and/or FastTrak 376 driver.

NOTE:

FastTrak 376 permits only two drives to be used for a single Mirrored array in Auto

Setup.

You would use this method if you wish to use a drive that already contains data and/or is the bootable system drive in your system. You will need another drive of identical or larger storage capacity.

WARNING:

1. Backup any necessary data before proceeding. Failure to follow this accepted PC practice could result in data loss.

2. If you wish to include your current bootable drive using the Windows NT 4.x or Windows 2000 operating system as part of a bootable Mirrored (RAID 1) array on your FastTrak 376, do NOT connect the hard drive to the FastTrak 376 controller yet. You MUST install the Windows NT4 or 2000 driver software first (see page 78) to this drive while it is still attached to your existing hard drive controller.

Using FastBuild™ Configuration Utility

The FastBuild™ Configuration Utility offers several menu choices to create and manage the drive array on the Promise FastTrak 376. For purposes of this manual, it is assumed you have already created an array in the previous chapter and now wish to make a change to the array or view other options.

Viewing FastTrak 376 BIOS Screen

When you boot your system with the FastTrak 376 and drives installed, the Promise onboard BIOS will detect the drives attached and show the following screen.

Scanning IDE drives . . . . .

If an array exists already, the BIOS will display the following screen showing the BIOS version and status of the array.

ID MODE SIZE TRACK-MAPPING STATUS

1 * 2+0 Stripe 16126M 611/128/32 Functional

Press <Ctrl-F> to enter FastBuild (tm) Utility....

The array status consists of three possible conditions: Functional, Critical,

Offline.

Functional - The array is operational. Critical - A mirrored array contains a drive that has failed or disconnected. The

remaining drive member in the array is functional. However, the array has temporarily lost its ability to provide fault tolerance. The user should identify the failed drive through the FastBuild Setup utility, and then replace the problem drive.

Offline - A striped array has 1 drive that has failed or been disconnected. When the

array condition is “offline,” the user must replace the failed drive(s), and then restore data from a backup source.

Navigating the FastBuild™ Setup Menu

When using the menus, these are some of the basic navigation tips: Arrow keys

highlights through choices; [Space] bar key allows to cycle through options; [Enter] key selects an option; [ESC] key is used to abort or exit the current menu.

Using the Main Menu

This is the first option screen when entering the FastBuild™ Setup.

Press 1...5 to Select Option [ESC] Exit

To create a new array automatically, follow the steps under [Creating Arrays

Automatically] on [page 72]. Promise recommends this option for most users.

To view drives assigned to arrays, see [Viewing Drive Assignments] on [page

80].

To delete an array (but not delete the data contained on the array), select

[Deleting An Array] on [page 83].

To rebuild a mirrored array, see [Rebuilding an Array] on [page 84].

NOTE:

After configuring an array using FastBuild™, you should FDISK and format the arrayed drive(s) if you are using new, blank drives. Depending on the type of array you are using.

Creating Arrays Automatically

The Auto Setup [1] selection from the Main Menu can intuitively help create

your disk array. It will assign all available drives appropriate for the disk array

Appendix

Optimize Array For

Select whether you want Performance (RAID 0), Security (RAID 1) under the

[Optimize Array for] setting.

Performance (RAID 0 Striping)

Supports the maximum performance. The storage capacity equals the number

of drives times the capacity of the smallest drive in the disk array.

NOTE: FastTrak 376 permits striped arrays using 1, 2 drive attached in Auto Setup mode

Security (RAID 1 Mirroring)

NOTE: Under the Security setting, FastTrak 376 permits two drives to be

used for a single Mirrored array only.

NOTE: If you wish to customize the settings of individual disk arrays (such

as block size), you must manually create disk arrays with the Define Array [3] option from the Main Menu.

Viewing Drive Assignments

The View Drive Assignments [2] option in the Main Menu displays whether

drives are assigned to a disk arrays or are unassigned.

The menu also displays the data transfer mode that relates to speed used by

each drive (U6 refers to 133MB/sec transfers, U5 refers to 100MB/sec transfers,

Appendix

How FastTrak 376 Orders Arrays

During startup, the disk arrays on the FastTrak 376 are recognized in this order:

1) The array set to bootable in the FastBuild™ Setup, and 2) the Array number (i.e. Array 0, Array 1…). This would be involved in determining which drive letters will be assigned to each disk array.

How FastTrak 376 Saves Array Information

All disk array data is saved into the reserved sector on each array member. Promise suggests that users record their disk array information for future reference.

Another feature of the FastTrak 376 disk array system is to recognize drive members even if drives are moved between different FastTrak 376 controller connectors. Since each drive’s array data identifies itself to the array, it is possible to move or swap drives without modifying the array setup. This is valuable when adding drives, or during a rebuild.

Deleting An Array

The Delete Array [4] Menu option allows for deletion of disk array assignments. This is not the same as deleting data from the drives themselves. If you delete an array by accident (and before it has been used again), the array can normally be recovered by defining the array identically as the deleted array.

WARNING:

to record all array information including the array type, the disk members, and stripe block size in case you wish to undo a deletion.

Deleting an existing disk array could result in its data loss. Make sure
