J2 680 System Manual Version 1.0 May 11, 2012 57 RAID Overview The 680 uses the Intel Matrix Storage Technology to allow the two internal 2.5 inch hard drives to be configured as a RAID array. The 680 supports RAID 0, RAID 1 and Intel Matrix RAID which combines the benefits of two RAID volumes in a single RAID array. If you are not currently familiar with RAID arrays Intel has a good white paper on the subject at: http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets/applnots/310855.htm There are a number of benefits to using the RAID feature. Protection is one benefit. When using a RAID 1 array, data is protected by mirroring. The primary RAID volume is duplicated automatically on the second drive, a mirror image of the first. If one of the two hard drives fails the system will still keep working. The bad hard drive can be replaced while the system is running. This is called hot swapping or hot plug. The new drive will automatically be updated to a mirror image of the working drive. Performance is another feature RAID can provide. When configured as a RAID 0 array the two drives in the RAID array are striped. With striping, data is split between two drives. This allows the 680 to read the data more than twice as fast as with a single drive. The performance can be more than twice as fast because the Intel RAID driver also uses the AHCI NCQ function built into the SATA drives. Protection and Performance can be mixed using an Intel Matrix RAID configuration, whereby a RAID 1 and RAID 0 can be setup on the same RAID array. Mission critical data can be stored in the RAID 1 volume and data requiring performance can be stored on the RAID 0 volume. AHCI AHCI stands for Advanced Host Controller Interface and is a feature of the SATA interface that allows for Hot Swapping and Native Command Queuing (NCQ). NCQ allows multiple commands to be sent to the hard drive at one time. The drive decides the best way to order the commands for the best performance from the drive. AHCI is enabled when RAID mode is selected in the BIOS setup. To use AHCI drivers from Intel the BIOS must be set to RAID, not AHCI. The AHCI mode uses the same drivers as used for RAID. Follow the instruction for install the RAID drivers but set the HDD as a Non-RAID Disk in the RAID BIOS setup. J2 680 System Manual Version 1.0 May 11, 2012 58 Enabling RAID in the BIOS The Intel manual for the Intel Matrix Storage Manager covers this same information given below in more detail and can be downloaded from the J2 web site. The documentation below is tailored for the 680 only. Link: http://www.j2retailsystems.com/support/680/RAID/ Perform the following steps to enable the RAID option in the system BIOS: 1. Enter the BIOS Setup program by pressing the DEL key after the BIOS sign-on screen appears. 2. Select the Advanced menu, and then the SATA Configuration menu. 3. Switch the Configure SATA Ports option from SATA to RAID. 4. Press the F10 key to save the BIOS settings and exit the BIOS Setup program. RAID Volume Creation Perform the following steps to create a RAID volume: 1. When the Intel Matrix Storage Manager option ROM status screen appears during POST, press the Ctrl and i keys at the same time to enter the Intel Matrix Storage Manager option ROM user interface. 2. Select Option 1: Create RAID Volume and press the Enter key. 3. Use the up or down arrow keys to select the RAID level and press the Enter key. 4. Unless you have selected RAID 1, use the up or down arrow keys to select the stripe size and press the Enter key. 5. Press the Enter key to select the physical disks. 6. Select the appropriate number of hard drives by using the up or down arrow keys to scroll through the list of hard drives and pressing the Space key to select the drive. When finished, press the Enter key. 7. Select the volume size and press the Enter key. 8. Press the Enter key to create the volume. At the prompt, press the Y key to confirm volume creation. 9.

You will then be prompted with a screen asking you to load support for mass storage device(s). 2. Press the S key to Specify Additional Device. 3. You will be prompted to Please insert the disk labeled Manufacturer-supplied hardware support disk into Drive A: When prompted, insert the floppy disk containing the following files: IAAHCI.INF, IAAHCI.CAT, IASTOR.INF, IASTOR.CAT, IASTOR.SYS, and TXTSETUP.OEM and press the Enter key. 4. After pressing Enter, you should be presented with a list of available SCSI Adapters. Select your controller from the list. The 680 uses the ICH8R driver. 5. The next screen should confirm your selected controller. Press the Enter key again to continue. 6. At this point, you have successfully F6'd in the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver and Windows setup should continue. Leave the floppy disk in the floppy drive until the system reboots. Windows setup will need to copy the files from the floppy again to the Windows installation folders. Once Windows setup has copied these files again, you should then remove the floppy diskette so that Windows setup can reboot as needed. 7. During Windows setup, create a partition and file system on the RAID volume as you would on any physical disk. Installing the Intel Matrix Storage Manager Software Once XP is booted you can install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager by just running the iata82_enu.exe install program. install. more information at manual70.pdf.
