  • Page 188: Introduction

    Introduction The ALi M5283 is a highly integrated disk drive controller that is capable of managing Parallel-ATA and Serial-ATA interface hard disk drives. The ALi controller supports PATA UDMA transfer mode up to mode 6 and SATA 1.0 disk drives. The ALi M5283 also comes with cost-effective RAID functionality that can be used to increase data read/write speed and to provide protection to data by distributing mirrored duplicates of data onto two disk drives (RAID1).

    Select a small stripe size if the I/Os to the hard drives are small and randomly occurred. Choose a larger stripe size if the I/Os are mostly large and come in sequential orders, e.g., A/V playback and editing applications. The default value should be appropriate for most applications.

    NANO-8522 Motherboard E.5.7 Rebuild RAID Array The Rebuild RAID Array option can rebuild a RAID array if a member of a RAID configuration should fail. Neither RAID0 nor JBOD provides data redundancy. The Rebuild RAID Array option only applies to RAID1 arrays and is applicable when a member of a RAID1 configuration has failed.
