Motherboard Manual CHAPTER 4: NVIDIA RAID FUNCTIONS 4.1 z OPERATION SYSTEM Supports Windows XP Home/Professional Edition, and Windows 2000 Professional. 4.2 RAID ARRAYS NVRAID 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 0+1: RAID 0+1 combines the techniques used in RAID 0 and RAID 1.
PAGE 23
TF520 A2+/TF560 A2+ 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.
PAGE 24
Motherboard Manual RAID 0+1: RAID 0 drives can be mirrored using RAID 1 techniques. Resulting in a RAID 0+1 solution for improved performance plus resiliency. 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.
PAGE 25
TF520 A2+/TF560 A2+ RAID 5: RAID 5 stripes both data and parity information across three or more drives. It writes data and parity blocks across all the drives in the array. Fault tolerance is maintained by ensuring that the parity information for any given block of data is placed on a different drive from those used to store the data itself. Features and Benefits Drives: Minimum 3. Uses: RAID 5 is recommended for transaction processing and general purpose service.

Motherboard Manual CHAPTER 5: OVERCLOCK QUICK GUIDE 5.1 T-POWER INTRODUCTION Biostar T-Power is a whole new utility that is designed for overclock users. Based on many precise tests, Biostar Engineering Team (BET) has developed this ultimate overclock engine to raise system performance. No matter whether under BIOS or Windows interface, T-Power is able to present the best system state according to users’ overclock setting. T-Power BIOS Features: Overclocking Navigator Engine (O.N.E.
PAGE 27
TF520 A2+/TF560 A2+ 5.2 T-POWER BIOS FEATURE A. Overclocking Navigator Engine (O.N.E.): ONE provides two powerful overclocking engines: MOS and AOS for both Elite and Casual overclockers. Manual Overclock System (M.O.S.) MOS is designed for experienced overclock users. It allows users to customize personal overclock settings.
PAGE 28
Motherboard Manual DRAM Configuration: Enter this function for more advanced DRAM settings. CPU Frequency: CPU Frequency is directly in proportion to system performance. To maintain the system stability, CPU voltage needs to be increased also when raising CPU frequency. K8<->NB HT Speed: This option controls the HyperTransport speed of CPU to northbridge chipset. K8<->NB HT Width: This option controls the HyperTransport width of CPU to northbridge chipset.
PAGE 29
TF520 A2+/TF560 A2+ Automatic Overclock System (A.O.S.) For beginners in overclock field, BET had developed an easy, fast, and powerful feature to increase the system performance, named A.O.S. Based on many tests and experiments, A.O.S. provides 3 ideal overclock configurations that are able to raise the system performance in a single step. V6 Tech Engine: This setting will raise about 10%~15% of whole system performance. V8 Tech Engine: This setting will raise about 15%~25% of whole system performance.
PAGE 30
Motherboard Manual V12 Tech Engine: This setting will raise about 25%~30% of whole system performance. Notices: 1. Not all types of AMD CPU perform above overclock setting ideally; the difference will be based on the selected CPU model. B. CMOS Reloading Program (C.R.P.): It allows users to save different CMOS settings into BIOS-ROM. Users are able to reload any saved CMOS setting for customizing system configurations.
PAGE 31
TF520 A2+/TF560 A2+ C. Memory Integration Test (M.I.T.): This function is under “Overclocking Navigator Engine” item. MIT allows users to test memory compatibilities, and no extra devices or software are needed. Step 1: The default setting under this item is “Disabled”; the condition parameter should be changed to “Enable” to proceed this test. ↓ Step 2: Save and Exit from CMOS setup and reboot the system to activate this test. Run this test for 5 minutes (minimum) to ensure the memory stability.
PAGE 32
Motherboard Manual D. Self Recovery System (S.R.S.): This function can’t be seen under T-Power BIOS setup; and is always on whenever the system starts up. However, it can prevent system hang-up due to inappropriate overclock actions. When the system hangs up, S.R.S. will automatically log in the default BIOS setting, and all overclock settings will be re-configured. E. Integrated Flash Program (I.F.P.): IFP is a safe and quick way to upgrade BIOS. Step 1: Go to Biostar website (http://www.biostar.com.
PAGE 33
TF520 A2+/TF560 A2+ F. Smart Fan Function: Smart Fan Function is under “PC Health Status”. This is a brilliant feature to control CPU Temperature vs. Fan speed. When enabling Smart Fan function, Fan speed is controlled automatically by CPU temperature. This function will protect CPU from overheat problem and maintain the system temperature at a safe level. ↓ SYS FAN1 Control by: This option controls the northbridge fan.
PAGE 34
Motherboard Manual CPU Fan Start <℃> The CPU fan starts to work when CPU temperature arrives to this set value. The range is from 0℃~127℃, with an interval of 1℃. CPU Fan Full speed <℃> When CPU temperature arrives to the set value, the CPU fan will work under Full Speed. The range is from 0℃~127℃, with an interval of 1℃. Start PWM Value When CPU temperature arrives to the set value, the CPU fan will work under Smart Fan Function mode. The range is from 0~127, with an interval of 1.

TF520 A2+/TF560 A2+ BIOS Setup Introduction The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the Phoenix-Award™ BIOS Setup program on this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration and save these settings to CMOS RAM. The power of CMOS RAM is supplied by a battery so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off. Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk.
