Rapid Recover Technology

The board incorporates the Intel

Rapid Recover Technology (Intel

RRT). Intel

Rapid Recover Technology is a feature of Intel

Matrix Storage Manager. It uses

RAID 1 (mirroring) functionality to copy data from a designated master drive to a

designated recovery drive. The master drive data can be copied to the recovery drive

either continuously or on request.

When using the continuous update policy, changes made to the data on the master

drive while the recovery drive is disconnected or offline are automatically copied to the

recovery drive when it is reconnected. When using the on request update policy, the

master drive data can be restored to a previous state by copying the data on the

recovery drive back to the master drive.
