Page 29: Tips On Installing Motherboard In Chassis
Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, TYAN recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place. Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how they should be installed. -
Page 30: Installing The Memory
The following diagram shows common types of DDR SDRAM modules: Here are a few key points to note before installing memory into your Thunder K8S Pro: • Always install memory beginning with CPU1_DIMM1 •... - Page 31 To remove the memory module, simply push the latches outwards until the memory module pops up. Then remove the module. YOU MUST ALWAYS unplug the power connector from the NOTE motherboard before performing system hardware changes. Otherwise you may damage the board and/or expansion device. http://www.TYAN.com...

Page 32: Attaching Drive Cables
2.36 – Attaching Drive Cables Attaching the IDE drive cable is simple. These cables are “keyed” to only allow them to be connected in the correct manner. TYAN motherboards have two on-board IDE channels, each supporting two drives. The black connector designates the Primary channel, while the white connector designates the Secondary channel. - Page 33 Connections for these drives are also very simple. There is no need to set Master/Slave jumpers on SATA drives. Tyan has supplied four SATA cables and two SATA power adapter. If you are in need of other cables or power adapters please contact your place of purchase.

CPU (similar to DMA channels). Cache: a temporary storage area for data that will be needed often by an application. Using a cache lowers data access times since the information is stored in SRAM instead http://www.TYAN.com... - Page 73 EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM): also called Flash BIOS, it is a ROM chip which can, unlike normal ROM, be updated. This allows you to keep up with changes in the BIOS programs without having to buy a new chip. TYAN’s BIOS updates can be found at http://www.tyan.com ESCD (Extended System Configuration Data): a format for storing information about Plug-n-Play devices in the system BIOS.
- Page 74 IDE drives. These modes use the CPU for data transfer (in contrast, DMA channels do not). PCI refers to the type of bus used by these modes to communicate with the CPU. PCI-to-PCI bridge: allows you to connect multiple PCI devices onto one PCI slot. http://www.TYAN.com...
- Page 75 Sleep/Suspend mode: in this mode, all devices except the CPU shut down. SDRAM (Static RAM): unlike DRAM, this type of RAM does not need to be refreshed in order to prevent data loss. Thus, it is faster and more expensive. http://www.TYAN.com...

IT manager can rest assure his server machines are always taken care. Tyan SMDC is not a peripheral card. Unlike regular peripheral card such as AGP card, Network card or SCSI card, SMDC does not require any hardware specific driver. As long as a standby power comes into the system, SMDC will begin looking after the system. -
