Page 63: S-Ata Raid Configuration
S-ATA RAID Configuration Section 5 S-ATA RAID CONFIGURATION Introduction This section gives a brief introduction on the RAID-related background knowledge and a brief introduction on VIA SATA RAID Host Controller. For more detailed information, please refer to user’s manual in the attached CD. RAID Basics RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a method of combining two hard disk drives into one logical unit.
Page 64 S-ATA RAID Configuration RAID 0 (Striping) RAID 0 reads and writes sectors of data interleaved between multiple drives. If any disk member fails, it affects the entire array. The disk array data capacity is equal to the number of drive members times the capacity of the smallest member. The striping block size can be set from 4KB to 64KB.
Page 65 S-ATA RAID Configuration K K K K K e e e e e y F y Fea eatur tures The VIA SATA RAID solution uses the VT8237 chip as a RAID controller, which is a 2-channel SATA and 1-channel ATA133 solution. The RAID software is a Windows-based software utility with graphical user interface that provides an easy- operating tool to configure and manage disk drives or disk arrays connected to the VT8237 controller.

Page 68 S-ATA RAID Configuration 3. After array mode is selected, there are two methods to create a disk array. One method is “Auto Setup” and the other one is “Select Disk Drives”. Auto Setup allows BIOS to select the disk drives and create arrays automatically, but it does not duplicate the mirroring drives even if the user selected Create and duplicate for RAID 1 .
Page 69 S-ATA RAID Configuration 5. Use the arrow key to highlight Start Create Process and press <Enter>. A warning message will appear, Press Y to finish the creation, or press N to cancel the creation. 6. Important note: All existing content in the hard drive will be destroyed after array creation.
Page 70 S-ATA RAID Configuration View Serial Number of Hard Drive Highlight Serial Number View and press <Enter>. Use arrow key to select a drive, the selected drive’s serial number can be viewed in the last column. The serial number is assigned by the disk drive manufacturer. View Array Status Press the F1 key to show the array status on the lower screen.
Page 71 S-ATA RAID Configuration Rebuild Broken RAID 1 Array When booting up the system, BIOS will detect if any member disk drives of RAID has failed or is absent. If BIOS detects any disk drive failures or missing disk drives, the status of the array will be marked as broken. If BIOS detects a broken RAID 1 array but there is a spare hard drive available for rebuilding the broken array, the spare hard drive will automatically become the mirroring drive.
Page 72 S-ATA RAID Configuration 3. Choose Replacement Drive and Rebuild: This item enables users to select an already-connected hard drive to rebuild the broken array. After choosing a hard drive, the channel column will be activated. Highlight the target hard drive and press <Enter>, a warning message will appear.
