A55MLC2/A55MLV2/A55MGC CHAPTER 4: AMD DUAL GRAPHICS TECHNOLOGY 4.1 AMD DUAL GRAPHICS TECHNOLOGY INTRODUCTION When user adds a PCIE display adapter, it can be integrated with IGD to show better performance. To make the two video devices work simultaneously and normally, please refer to the following setting. 4.
Motherboard Manual 4.3 AMD DUAL GRAPHICS SETUP Step 1: Insert Dual Graphics-Ready graphics card into PEX16_1 slot. Step 2: Set the BIOS setting as follows: [Chipset]→[North Bridge]→[Surround View]→[Enabled] Step 3: Install Driver DVD Chipset Driver, and reboot the system. Activate AMD VISION Engine Control Center to make sure CrossFire has been enabled.
A55MLC2/A55MLV2/A55MGC CHAPTER 5: RAID FUNCTIONS 5.1 OPERATING SYSTEM Supports Windows Vista and Windows 7. 5.2 RAID ARRAYS RAID supports the following types of RAID arrays: RAID 0: RAID 0 defines a disk striping scheme that improves disk read and write times for many applications. RAID 1: RAID 1 defines techniques for mirroring data. RAID 10: RAID 10 combines the techniques used in RAID 0 and RAID 1. 5.
Motherboard Manual RAID 1: Every read and write is actually carried out in parallel across 2 disk drives in a RAID 1 array system. The mirrored (backup) copy of the data can reside on the same disk or on a second redundant drive in the array. RAID 1 provides a hot-standby copy of data if the active volume or drive is corrupted or becomes unavailable because of a hardware failure.
A55MLC2/A55MLV2/A55MGC RAID 10: RAID 1 drives can be stripped using RAID 0 techniques. Resulting in a RAID 10 solution for improved resiliency, performance and rebuild performance. Features and Benefits Drives: Minimum 4, and maximum is 6 or 8, depending on the platform. Benefits: Optimizes for both fault tolerance and performance, allowing for automatic redundancy. May be simultaneously used with other RAID levels in an array, and allows for spare disks.
