RAID 0, 1, 3 or 5 capability to any host system equipped with a Little Endian PCI Local Bus interface. All the RAID functions of ASUS PCI-DA2200 are performed by an AMD 5x86 CPU coupled with high-speed DRAMs and firmware in flash memory. In effect, it endows the host system with the high-performance and fault-tolerant disk storage operation of RAID technology.

Page 11: Chapter 3 Functional Description
The advantages of RAID are: Availability, Capacity and Performance. Choosing the right RAID level and drive failure management can increase Availability, subsequently increasing Performance and Capacity. The ASUS PCI-DA2200 RAID controller provides complete RAID functionality and enhanced drive failure management. RAID Management RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Drives.
Page 12 Minimum Disks required Capacity Redundancy JBOD stands for Just a Bunch of Drives. The controller treats each drive as a stand-alone disk, therefore each drive is an independent logical drive. JBOD does not provide data redundancy. ASUS PCI-DA2200 User’s Manual...
Page 13: Disk Mirroring
RAID 1 mirrors the data stored in one hard drive to another. RAID 1 can only be performed with two hard drives. If there are more than two hard drives, RAID (0+1) will be performed automatically. ASUS PCI-DA2200 User’s Manual...
Page 14 RAID 3 performs Block Striping with Dedicated Parity. One drive member is dedicated to storing the parity data. When a drive member fails, the controller can recover/regenerate the lost data of the failed drive from the dedicated parity drive. ASUS PCI-DA2200 User’s Manual...

Page 16 Logical Drive 0 Logical Drive 1 Logical Drive 2 The ASUS PCI-DA2200 RAID controller provides both Local Spare Drive and Global Spare Drive functions. On certain occasions, applying these two functions together will better fit various needs. Take note though that the Local Spare Drive always has higher priority than the Global Spare Drive.

(i.e., a check time interval has been selected), the controller will detect whether or not the failed drive has been swapped (by checking the failed drive’s channel/ID). Once the failed drive has been swapped, the rebuild will begin immediately. ASUS PCI-DA2200 User’s Manual...
Page 20: Manual Rebuild
Once the failed drive has been replaced by a new drive/used drive, it starts to rebuild using the replaced drive. If there is no available drive for rebuilding, the controller will not try to rebuild again until the user applies another forced-manual rebuild. 3-10 ASUS PCI-DA2200 User’s Manual...
Page 21: Disk Array Parameters
Rebuild Priority Rebuilding time will depend on the capacity of the logical drive. The ASUS PCI-DA2200 RAID controller provides background rebuilding ability. Meaning, the controller is able to serve other I/O requests while rebuilding the logical drives. The rebuilding process is totally transparent to the host computer or the operating system.

Installing DRAM SIMM IMPORTANT: The ASUS PCI-DA2200 requires a minimum of 8 Mbytes of DRAM in one SIMM (with or without parity function) installed in SIMM socket to operate. The controller is normally delivered without any DRAM installed. The following are guidelines with regards to DRAM: Use 72-pin 60ns DRAM or 60ns EDO RAM SIMM modules.

Drives connected to channel 0 and/or 1. SCSI nodes on the same channel have unique ID number. The SCSI ID 7 is reserved for the ASUS PCI-DA2200 adapter and thus no drives should use ID 7. Both ends of all SCSI cables are properly terminated. Terminate the SCSI cable by installing an external terminator on the end connector.
