1 Introduction Features Watchdog Timer The Watchdog Timer function allows your application to regularly “clear” the system at the set time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it will reset at the set time interval so that your system will continue to operate. DDR3 DDR3 delivers increased system bandwidth and improved performance. It offers peak data transfer rate of up to 21 Gb/s bandwidth.
PAGE 13
Introduction 1 Serial ATA Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliant with SATA 1.0a specification. SATA 3.0 supports speed up to 6Gb/s while SATA 2.0 supports speed up to 3Gb/s. This improves hard drive performance faster than the standard parallel ATA whose data transfer rate is 100MB/s. The board supports RAID 0/1/5/10. Gigabit LAN The Intel W82579LM PHY and Intel W82574 PCI Express Gigabit controllers support up to 1Gbps data transmission. USB The system board supports USB 2.0 and USB 1.
PAGE 14
1 Introduction RTC Timer The RTC installed on the system board allows your system to automatically power-on on the set date and time. ACPI STR The system board is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) specification. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to implement Power Management and Plug-and-Play with operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management. ACPI when enabled in the Power Management Setup will allow you to use the Suspend to RAM function.

2 Hardware Installation Important: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your system board, processor, disk drives, add-in boards, and other components. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD workstation only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis.
PAGE 17
Hardware Installation 2 The system board supports the following memory interface. Single Channel (SC) Data will be accessed in chunks of 64 bits (8B) from the memory channels. Dual Channel (DC) Data will be accessed in chunks of 128 bits from the memory channels. Dual channel provides better system performance because it doubles the data transfer rate. Single Channel DIMMs are on the same channel. DIMMs in a channel can be identical or completely different.

RAID 5 Chapter 5 - RAID The system board allows configuring RAID on Serial ATA drives. It supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5 and RAID 10. RAID Levels RAID 0 (Striped Disk Array without Fault Tolerance) RAID 0 uses two new identical hard disk drives to read and write data in parallel, interleaved stacks. Data is divided into stripes and each stripe is written alternately between two disk drives. This improves the I/O performance of the drives at different channel; however it is not fault tolerant.
