CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 BEFORE YOU ST ART

Thank you for choosing our product. Be fore you start installing the mothe rboard, please make sure you follow the instructions be low: Prepare a dry and stable work ing environment with sufficie nt lighting. Always disconne ct the compute r from powe r outle t be fore ope ration. Before you take the mothe rboard out from anti-static bag, ground yourse lf prope rly by touching any safe ly grounde d appliance, or use grounded wrist strap to remove the static charge. Avoid touching the compone nts on mothe rboard or the rear side of the board unless ne cessary. Hold the board on the edge , do not try to be nd or flex the board. Do not leave any unfastene d small parts inside the case afte r installation. Loose parts will cause short circuits which may damage the equipment. Keep the compute r from dange rous a rea, such as hea t source , humid air and wate r .

CHAPTER 2: HARDWARE INSTALLATION 2.1 INST ALLING CENT RAL PROCESSING UNIT (CPU)

Step 1: Remove the socket protection cap.

Step 2: Pull the lever toward direction A from the socket and then raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.

Step 3: 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 4: Hold the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever toward direct B to complete the installation.

Step 5: Put the CPU Fan on the CPU and buckle it. Connect the CPU FAN power cable to the CPUFAN. This completes the installation.

Note: Please update the BIOS to the l atest version while using AM2+ CPUs. Due to the latest CPU transition, you may encounter the situation that the new s ys tem fail ed to boot while using new AM2+ CPUs. In this c ase, please i nstall one standar d AM2 CPU to boot your s ystem, and update the latest BIOS from our website for AM2+ CPUs support.

CHAPTER 4: RAID FUNCTIONS 4.1 4.2 O PERAT ION SYST EM RAID ARRAYS
Supports Windows XP Home/Prof essional Edition, and Windows Vista

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 platf orm. 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. Fault Tolerance: No.

Blo ck 1 Block 3 Block 5

Block 2 Blo ck 4 Blo ck 6

21

Motherboard Manual

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 f or 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. Fault Tolerance: Yes.

Block 1 Block 2 Block 3

Block 1 Block 2 Block 3

22

A770 A2+/A740X A2+

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 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. Fault Tolerance: Yes.

After you installed your operating system, please insert the Fully Setup Driver CD into your optical drive and install the driver for better system performance. You will see the following window after you insert the CD

The setup guide will auto detect your motherboard and operating system. Note:
If this window didnt show up after you ins ert the Driver CD, please use file brows er to locate and execute the file SETUP.EXE under your optical drive.

A. Driver Installation
To install the driver, please click on the Driver icon. The setup guide will list the compatible driver for your motherboard and operating system. Click on each device driver to launch the installation program.

B. Software Installation
To install the software, please click on the Software icon. The setup guide will list the software available for your system, click on each software title to launch the installation program.

C. Manual
Aside from the paperback manual, we also provide manual in the Driver CD. Click on the Manual icon to browse for available manual. Note:

EXT RA INFORMAT ION

If the system shutdown automatically after power on system for seconds, that means the CPU protection function has been activated. When the CPU is over heated, the motherboard will shutdown automatically to avoid a damage of the CPU, and the system may not power on again. In this case, please double check: 1. The CPU cooler surface is placed evenly with the CPU surface. 2. CPU fan is rotated normally. 3. CPU fan speed is fulfilling with the CPU speed. After confirmed, please follow steps below to relief the CPU protection function. 1. Remove the power cord from power supply for seconds. 2. Wait for seconds. 3. Plug in the power cord and boot up the system. Or you can: 1. Clear the CMOS data. (See Close CMOS Header: JCMOS1 section) 2. Wait for seconds. 3. Power on the system again.
