CHAPTER 4: NVIDIA RAID FUNCTIONS

4.1 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.

Spanning (JBOD): JBOD provides a method for combining drives of different sizes in to

one large disk.

RAID 5: RAID 5 provides fault tolerance and better utilization of disk capacity.

4.3 HOW RAID WORKS

RAID 0:

The controller “stripes” data across multiple drives in a RAID 0 array system. It breaks

up a large f ile into smaller blocks and performs disk reads and writes across multip le

drives in parallel. The size of each block is determined by the stripe size parameter,

which you set during the creation of the RAID set based on the system environment. This

technique reduces overall disk access time and offers high bandwidth.

Features and Benefits

 Drives: Minimum 1, and maximum is up to 6 or 8. Depending on the

platform.

 Uses: Intended for non-critical data requiring high data throughput, or any

environment that does not require fault tolerance.

 Benefits: provides increased data throughput, especially for large files. No

capacity loss penalty for parity.

 Drawbacks: Does not deliver any fault tolerance. If any drive in the array

fails, all data is lost.

 Fault Tolerance: No.

Block 1

Block 3

Block 5

Block 2

Block 4

Block 6

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.

RAID techniques can be applied for high-availability solutions, or as a form of

automatic backup that eliminates tedious manual backups to more expensive and less

reliable media.

Features and Benefits

 Drives: Minimum 2, and maximum is 2.

 Uses: RAID 1 is ideal for small databases or any other application that

requires fault tolerance and minimal capacity.

 Benefits: Provides 100% data redundancy. Should one drive fail, the

controller switches to the other drive.

 Drawbacks: Requires 2 drives for the storage space of one drive.

Performance is impaired during drive rebuilds.

 Fault Tolerance: Yes.

TForce 590 SLI Deluxe

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.

- Drawbacks: Requires twice the available disk space for data redundancy,

the same as RAID level 1.

- Fault Tolerance: Yes.

Spanning (JBOD):

JBOD stands for “Just a Bunch of Disks”. Each drive is accessed as if it were on a

standard SCSI host bus adapter. This is useful when a single drive configuration is

needed, but it offers no speed improvement or fault tolerance.

Features and Benefits

- Uses: JBOD works best if you have odd sized drives and you want to

combine them to make one big drive.

- Benefits: JBOD provides the ability to combine odd size drives using all of

the capacity of the drives.

- Drawbacks: Decreases performance because of the difficulty in using

drives concurrently.

- Fault Tolerance: Yes.

Drive

Motherboard Manual

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.

- Benefits: An ideal combination of good performance, good fault

tolerance, and high capacity and storage efficiency.

- Drawbacks: Individual block data transfer rate same as a single disk.

Write performance can be CPU intensive.

CPU temperature will increase when CPU voltage is increased.

Choices: The range is from 1.2V to 1.725V, with an interval of 0.0.25V.

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.

Choices: This range is from 200 to 450, with an interval of 1MHz.

Hammer CPU Multiplier:

The MOS allows users to downgrade the CPU ratio when overclocking.

Choices: The lower limit is x4 (800MHz). The upper limit is decided by

different CPU type. With an x1 (200MHz) interval.

Memory Overclock Setting:

Memory Voltage:

This function will increase memory stability when overclocking.

Choices: The range is from 1.85V to 2.0V, with an interval of 0.05V.

Memclock Frequency:

To get better system performance, sometimes downgrading the memory

frequency is necessary when CPU frequency is adjusted over the upper

limit.

Choices: DDR2 400, DDR2 533, DDR2 667, DDR2 800 (MHz).

PCI-Express Overclock Setting:

PCIE Clock:

It helps to increase VGA card performance.

Choices: The range is from 100 to 145, with an interval of 1MHz.

Chipset Overclock Setting:

Motherboard Manual

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.

TForce 590 SLI Deluxe

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.

2. From BET experiments, the Atholon64 FX CPU is not suitable for this A.O.S. feature.

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.

Moreover, users are able to save an ideal overclock setting during overclock

operation.

There are 50 sets of record addresses in total, and users are able to name the

CMOS data according to personal preference.

Motherboard Manual

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.

Step 3:

When the process is done, change the setting back from “Enable” to “Disable”

to complete the test.

TForce 590 SLI Deluxe

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.tw) to download the latest BIOS

file. Then, save the file into a floppy disk.

Step 2:

Insert the floppy disk and reboot the system to get into CMOS screen.

Step 3:

Select the item “Integrated Flash Program” to get the following frame and

choose the BIOS file downloaded in step 1.

Step 4:

Press “Enter” key to start BIOS file loading, and BIOS updating will process

automatically.

Step 5:

When the BIOS update is completed, press YES to the message “Flash done,

Reset system”, and the system will reboot automatically to finish the process.

Advise:

You can update the system BIOS by simply pressing “Enter” key for three times.

BIOS Setup

Introduction

The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the 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. This system controls most of the input and

output devices such as keyboard, mouse, serial ports and disk drives. BIOS

activates at the first stage of the booting process, loading and executing the

operating system. Some additional features, such as virus and password

protection or chipset fine-tuning options are also included in BIOS.

The rest of this manual will to guide you through the options and settings in

7 PnP/PCI Configurations

This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal

Computer Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O devices to operate at

speeds nearing the speed of the CPU itself uses when communicating with its

own special components. This section covers some very technical items and it is

strongly recommended that only experienced users should make any changes to

the default settings.

 Figure 7: PnP/PCI Configurations

Init Display First

This item allows you to decide to active whether PCI Slot or on-chip VGA first.

The Choices: PCI Ex (default), PCI Slot.

Reset Configuration Data

The system BIOS supports the PnP feature which requires the system to record

which resources are assigned and protects resources from conflict.

Every peripheral device has a node, which is called ESCD. This node records

which resources are assigned to it. The system needs to record and update ESCD

to the memory locations. These locations are reserved in the system BIOS. If the

Disabled (default) option is chosen, the system‘s ESCD will update only when

the new configuration varies from the last one. If the Enabled option is chosen,

TForce 590 SLI Deluxe

the system is forced to update ESCDs and then is automatically set to the

“Disabled” mode.

The above settings will be shown on the screen only if “Manual” is chosen for

the resources controlled by function.

Legacy is the term, which signifies that a resource is assigned to the ISA Bus

and provides non-PnP ISA add-on cards. PCI / ISA PnP signify that a resource

is assigned to the PCI Bus or provides for ISA PnP add-on cards and

peripherals.

The Choices: Disabled (default), Enabled.

Resources Controlled By

By Choosing “Auto(ESCD)” (default), the system BIOS will detect the system

resources and automatically assign the relative IRQ and DMA channel for each

peripheral. By Choosing “Manual”, the user will need to assign IRQ & DMA for

add-on cards. Be sure that there are no IRQ/DMA and I/O port conflicts.

The Choices: Auto (ESCD) (default), Manual.

IRQ Resources

This submenu will allow you to assign each system interrupt a type, depending

on the type of device using the interrupt. When you press the “Press Enter” tag,

you will be directed to a submenu that will allow you to configure the system

interrupts. This is only configurable when “Resources Controlled By” is set to

“Manual”.

IRQ-3 assigned to PCI Device

IRQ-4 assigned to PCI Device

IRQ-5 assigned to PCI Device

IRQ-7 assigned to PCI Device

IRQ-9 assigned to PCI Device
