CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1

BEFORE YOU START

Prepare a dry and stable working environment with sufficient lighting. Always disconnect the computer from power outlet before operation. Before you take the motherboard out from anti-static bag, ground yourself properly by touching any safely grounded appliance, or use grounded wrist strap to remove the static charge. Avoid touching the components on motherboard or the rear side of the board unless necessary. Hold the board on the edge, do not try to bend or flex the board. Do not leave any unfastened small parts inside the case after installation. Loose parts will cause short circuits which may damage the equipment. Keep the computer from dangerous area, such as heat source, humid air and water.

Thank you for choosing our product. Before you start installing the motherboard, please make sure you follow the instructions below:

CHAPTER 2: HARDWARE INSTALLATION 2.1 INSTALLING CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (CPU)

Step 1: Pull the lever toward direction A from the socket and then raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.

Step 2: Look for the white triangle on socket, and the gold triangle on CPU should point towards this white triangle. The CPU will fit only in the correct orientation.

Motherboard Manual Step 3: Hold the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever toward direct B to complete the installation.

Step 4: Put the CPU Fan on the CPU and buckle it. Connect the CPU FAN power cable to the CPU_FAN1. This completes the installation.

Note: Please update the BIOS to the latest version while using AM2+/AM3 CPUs. Due to the latest CPU transition, you may encounter the situation that the new system failed to boot while using new AM2+/AM3 CPUs. In this case, please install one standard AM2 CPU to boot your system, and update the latest BIOS from our website for AM2+/AM3 CPUs support.

CHAPTER 4: RAID FUNCTIONS 4.1

z

OPERATING SYSTEM RAID ARRAYS

Supports Windows XP Home/Professional Edition, and Windows Vista.

4.2

RAID supports the following types of RAID arrays: RAID 0: RAID 0 defines a disk striping scheme that improves disk read and write times for many applications. RAID 1: RAID 1 defines techniques for mirroring data. RAID 1+0: RAID 1+0 combines the techniques used in RAID 0 and RAID 1.

4.3

HOW RAID WORKS RAID 0:

The controller stripes data across multiple drives 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 overall disk access time and offers high bandwidth.

Features and Benefits

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 environment that does not require fault tolerance. Benefits: provides increased data throughput, especially for large files. No capacity loss penalty for parity. Drawbacks: Does not deliver any fault tolerance. If any drive in the array fails, all data is lost. Fault Tolerance: No.

Block 1 Block 3 Block 5

Block 2 Block 4 Block 6

18

A780L M2G+/A780L M2L+/A780L

RAID 1:
Every read and write is actually carried out in parallel across 2 disk drives in a RAID 1 array system. The mirrored (backup) copy of the 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 drive is corrupted or becomes unavailable 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 media.

Features and Benefits

Drives: Minimum 2, and maximum is 2. Uses: RAID 1 is ideal for small databases or any other application that requires fault tolerance and minimal capacity. Benefits: Provides 100% data redundancy. Should one drive fail, the controller switches to the other drive. Drawbacks: Requires 2 drives for the storage space of one drive. Performance is impaired during drive rebuilds. Fault Tolerance: Yes.

Block 1 Block 2 Block 3

Block 1 Block 2 Block 3

19

Motherboard Manual

RAID 1+0:
RAID 1 drives can be stripped using RAID 0 techniques. Resulting in a RAID 1+0 solution for improved resiliency, performance and rebuild performance.

Features and Benefits

Drives: Minimum 4, and maximum is 6 or 8, depending on the platform. Benefits: Optimizes for both fault tolerance and performance, allowing for automatic redundancy. May be simultaneously used with other RAID levels in an array, and allows for spare disks. Drawbacks: Requires twice the available disk space for data redundancy, the same as RAID level 1. Fault Tolerance: Yes.
