Mainboard KM51PV-754 Appendix II: RAID Setup Introduction to RAID RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) technology is a sophisticated disk management system that manages multiple disk drives. It enhances I/O performance and provides redundancy in order to prevent the loss of data in case of individual disk failure. The RAID facility on this board provides RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1, RAID JBOD, and RAID 5. Disk Striping (RAID 0) Striping is a performance-oriented, non-redundant disk storage technology.
PAGE 44
Mainboard KM51PV-754 3.On the “RAID config” screen (shown below-right), enable the disks that you want to use as RAID disks (in this example there are four SATA hard drives configured as RAID disks). NVIDIA RAID Utility Configuration The NVIDIA RAID Utility is used to configure RAID disk management into your hard disks. This section will explain how to setup and maintain your RAID disk drives.
PAGE 45
Mainboard KM51PV-754 For Example: On a board with 4 connectors (PATA1, PATA2, SATA1, SATA2), the following applies: 0.0.M = PATA1 (master drive) 0.0.S = PATA1 (slave drive) 0.1.M = PATA2 (master drive) 0.1.S = PATA2 (slave drive) 1.0.M = SATA1 1.1.M = SATA2 Creating New RAID Array The first screen you will see upon initial configuration is the “Define New Array” screen. First, tab over to the “RAIDMode” text box and press . The pop up menu will display as shown below.
PAGE 46
Mainboard KM51PV-754 Next, in the “Free Disks” section, you can use the up/down arrow keys to select disks to be used in your RAID array. After highlighting a disk, use the right-arrow key to activate the disk as part of the RAID Array. The selected disk will move over to the “Array Disks” section. You can use the left-arrow key to reverse your selection. After you finish selecting all your disks, Press . A confirmation message will display as shown below.
PAGE 47
Mainboard KM51PV-754 Deleting an Array You can delete an existing array on the “Array Detail” screen. Press the key. A warning/confirmation message will display (as shown below). Press to confirm. After the array is successfully deleted, the screen will display as shown below. 43 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.
PAGE 48
Mainboard KM51PV-754 Rebuilding a RAID Mirrored Array This section applies to Mirrored, Striped Mirroring RAID and RAID 5 configurations and describes how to reestablish the integrity of a mirrored environment after replacing one of the drives (typically because of a single disk failure). After replacing the errant drive, the rebuild process will move data from its mirrored sibling drive (the drive with information still intact) to the newly installed drive.
PAGE 49
Mainboard KM51PV-754 Install the OS of Windows® 2000/XP into your RAID HDDs In this section, it will tell you how to install the operating system of Windows® 2000/XP into your RAID drives. The installation steps below will assume that your HDDs have already been attached to either the PATA or SATA connectors, and also your BIOS RAID Utility has already been configured (see NVIDIA BIOS RAID Utility Configuration section).
PAGE 50
Mainboard KM51PV-754 Appendix III: ABS (Albatron BIOS Security) Card Setup Introduction The ABS (Albatron BIOS Security) system provides your system with a recovery BIOS backup when your onboard BIOS has been damaged beyond system boot capability. Preparation and Setup You should prepare a boot floppy disk and have it ready in case of such BIOS failures. Otherwise you will have to find another computer to make the boot floppy disk from.
PAGE 51
Mainboard KM51PV-754 5. Place the boot floppy disk (from the “Preparation and Setup” section) into the floppy drive and turn on your system. Note: If your system is not setup to use the floppy drive as the first boot drive, you must enter the BIOS setup utility and make the appropriate adjustments. During the initial boot up sequence the screen will display a message that will give you an opportunity to enter the BIOS setup utility (typically, “Press Delete Key to enter BIOS utility”) .
PAGE 52
Mainboard KM51PV-754 8. The initial AWARD BIOS FLASH screen (shown below-left) will appear and prompt you with the message, “Do you want to save BIOS?” Type “N” (Note: Typing “Y” is only used when saving the BIOS from the onboard BIOS to the floppy disk). Type N Type Y The next screen (shown above-right) will display a message “Press ’Y’ to Program or ‘N’ to Exit”. Then type ‘Y’ to begin the onboard BIOS flash procedure. 9.
PAGE 53
Mainboard KM51PV-754 10. During the next boot sequence, enter the BIOS utility program (Note: During the boot sequence you will be given a chance to enter the BIOS utility by pressing the “DEL” key on most systems). Load the system with the default settings, and save the changes before exit the BIOS utility program. Then the onboard BIOS recovery procedures are completed at this time. Follow the path: Defaults -> Load System Default Settings -> Y .
PAGE 54
Mainboard KM51PV-754 11. After you have recovered your onboard BIOS, you can choose to remove or not remove the ABS Card from the mainboard. If you do choose to remove the ABS Card from the mainboard, make sure that the system is powered off before you remove the card. After you remove the ABS card you must replace the two jumper caps on the BIOSCN1 header back to the default positions (pins 1-2 and pins 3-4 are both closed as shown).
