1.1 Serial ATA (SATA) Hard Disks Installation

Intel H67 chipset supports SerialATA (SATA) hard disks with RAID

functions, including RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, RAID 5, and Intel

Rapid Storage. Please read the RAID configurations in this guide

carefully according to the Intel southbridge chipset that your

motherboard adopts. You may install SATA hard disks on this

motherboard for internal storage devices. For SATAinstallation

guide, please refer to SerialATA(SATA) Hard Disks Installation of

“User Manual” in the support CD. This section will guide you how to

create RAIDon SATAports.

2. Guide to RAID Configurations

2.1 Introduction of RAID

This motherboard adopts Intel southbridge chipset that integrates

RAIDcontroller supporting RAID0 / RAID 1/ Intel Rapid Storage /

RAID 10 / RAID 5 function with four independent Serial ATA

(SATA) channels. This section will introduce the basic knowledge

of RAID, and the guide to configure RAID0 / RAID 1/ Intel Rapid

Storage / RAID 10 / RAID 5 settings.

RAID

The term “RAID” stands for “Redundant Array of Independent

Disks”, which is a method combining two or more hard disk drives

into one logical unit. For optimal performance, please install

identical drives of the same model and capacity when creating a

RAID set.

RAID 0 (Data Striping)

RAID 0 is called data striping that optimizes two identical hard disk

drives to read and write data in parallel, interleaved stacks. It will

improve data access and storage since it will double the data

transfer rate of a single disk alone while the two hard disks

perform the same work as a single drive but at a sustained data

transfer rate.

WARNING!!

Although RAID 0 function can improve the access performance, it

does not provide any fault tolerance. Hot-Plug any HDDs of the

RAID 0 Disk will cause data damage or data loss.

RAID 1 (Data Mirroring)

RAID 1 is called data mirroring that copies and maintains an

identical image of data from one drive to a second drive. It

provides data protection and increases fault tolerance to the

entire system since the disk array management software will

direct all applications to the surviving drive as it contains a

complete copy of the data in the other drive if one drive fails.

Intel Rapid Storage

The Intel Rapid Storage technology supported allows you to

create a RAID 0 and RAID 1 set using only two identical hard disk

drives. The Intel Rapid Storage technology creates two partitions

on each hard disk drive to create a virtual RAID0 and RAID 1 sets.

This technology also allows you to change the hard disk drive

partition size without losing any data.

RAID 10

RAID 10 is a striped configuration with RAID 1 segments whose

segments are RAID 1 arrays. This configuration has the same

fault tolerance as RAID 1, and has the same overhead for fault-

tolerance as mirroring alone. RAID 10 achieves high input / output

rates by striping RAID 1 segments. In some instances, a RAID 10

configuration can sustain multiple simultaneous drive failure. A

minimum of four hard disk drives is required for this setup.

RAID 5

RAID 5 stripes both data and parity information across three or

more hard disk drives. Among the advantages of RAID 5

configuration include better HDD performance, fault tolerance,

and higher storage capacity. The RAID 5 configuration is best

suited for transaction processing, relational database applications,

enterprise resource planning, and other business systems. Use a

minimum of three identical hard disk drives for this setup.

2.2 RAID Configurations Precautions

1. Please use two new drives if you are creating a RAID0

(striping) array for performance. It is recommended to

use two SATA drives of the same size. If you use two

drives of different sizes, the smaller capacity hard disk

will be the base storage size for each drive. For

example, if one hard disk has an 80GB storage capacity

and the other hard disk has 60GB, the maximum storage

capacity for the 80GB-drive becomes 60GB, and the

total storage capacity for this RAID 0 set is 120GB.

2. You may use two new drives, or use an existing drive

and a new drive to create a RAID 1 (mirroring) array for

data protection (the new drive must be of the same size

or larger than the existing drive). If you use two drives

of different sizes, the smaller capacity hard disk will be

the base storage size. For example, if one hard disk has

an 80GB storage capacity and the other hard disk has

60GB, the maximum storage capacity for the RAID1 set

is 60GB.

3. Please verify the status of your hard disks before you

set up your new RAID array.

WARNING!!

Please backup your data first before you create RAID functions.

In the process you create RAID, the system will ask if you want to “Clear

Disk Data” or not. It is recommended to select “Yes”, and then your future

data building will operate under a clean environment.

2.3.1 Installing Windows®XP / XP 64-bit With

RAID Functions

If you want to install Windows®XP / XP 64-bit on your SATA / SATAII

HDDs with RAIDfunctions, please follow below steps.

STEP 1: Set up BIOS.

A.EnterBIOS SETUP UTILITY Advanced screen Storage

Configuration.

B. Set “SATA Operation Mode” to [RAID].

STEP 2: Make a SATA / SATAII Driver Diskette.

A. Insert the Support CD into your optical drive to boot your

system.

B. During POST at the beginning of system boot-up, press <F11>

key, and then a window for boot devices selection appears.

Please select CD-ROM as the boot device.

C. When you see the message on the screen, “Do you want to

generate Serial ATA driver diskette [YN]?”, press <Y>.

D. Then you will see these messages,

Please insert a diskette into the floppy drive.

WARNING! Formatting the floppy diskette will

lose ALL data in it!

Start to format and copy files [YN]?

Please insert a floppy diskette into the floppy drive, and press

<Y>.

E. The system will start to format the floppy diskette and copy

SATA / SATAII drivers into the floppy diskette.

STEP 3: Use “RAID Installation Guide” to set RAID

configuration.

Before you start to configure the RAID function, you need to

check the installation guide in the Support CD for proper

configuration. Please refer to the document in the Support CD,

“Guide to SATA Hard Disks Installation and RAID Configuration”,

which is located in the folder at the following path:

.. \ RAID Installation Guide

2.3 Installing Windows®7 / 7 64-bit / VistaTM /

VistaTM 64-bit / XP / XP 64-bit With RAID Functions

If you want to install Windows®7 / 7 64-bit / VistaTM / VistaTM 64-

bit / XP / XP 64-bit OS on your SATA/ SATAII HDDs with RAID

functions, please follow below procedures according to the OS

you install.

If you want to use “Intel Rapid Storage” in Windows®environment, please

install SATA / SATAII drivers from the Support CDagain so that “Intel Rapid

Storage” will be installed to your system as well.

After the installation of Windows®XP / XP-64bit OS, if you want to manage RAID functions,

you are allowed to use both “RAID InstallationGuide” and “Intel Rapid Storage Information”

for RAID configuration. Please refer to the document in the Support CD, “Guide to SATA

Hard Disks Installation and RAID Configuration”, which is located in the folder at the

following path: .. \ RAID Installation Guide and the document in the support CD, “Guide to

Intel Rapid Storage”, which is located in the folder at the following path: .. \ Intel Rapid

Storage Information

2.3.2 Setting Up a “RAID Ready” System

You can also set up a “RAID Ready” system with a single SATA / SATAII

hard disk. A “RAIDReady” system can be seamlessly upgraded to RAID 0,

RAID 1 or RAID 5 at a later date by using RAID migration feature of Intel

Matrix Storage. The following steps outline how to build an Intel “RAID

Ready” system.

1. Assemble the system and attach a single SATA / SATAII hard drive.

2. Set up system BIOS as step 1 of page 6. When done, exit Setup.

3. Make a SATA / SATAII driver diskette as step 2 of page 6. Begin

Windows®setup by booting from the installation CD.

4. At the beginning of Windows®setup, press F6 to install a third-party

RAID driver. When prompted, insert the SATA / SATAII driver diskette

containing the Intel®RAID driver. After reading the floppy disk, the driver

will be presented. Select the driver to install according to the mode you

choose and the OS you install.

5. Finish the Windows®installation and install all necessary drivers.

STEP 4: Install Windows®XP / XP 64-bit OS on your system.

After making a SATA / SATAII driver diskette and using “RAID

Installation Guide” to set RAID configuration, you can start to install

Windows®XP / XP64-bit on your system.At the beginning of Windows

setup, press F6 to install a third-party RAID driver. When prompted,

insertthe SATA/SATAII driver diskette containing the Intel®RAIDdriver.

After reading the floppy disk, the driver will be presented. Select the

driver to install according to the mode you choose and the OS you

install.

2.3.3 Migrating a “RAID Ready” System to RAID 0,

RAID 1 or RAID 5

If you have an existing “RAID Ready” system, then you can use the

following steps to perform a migration from a single non-RAID

configuration to a two drive RAID 0, RAID 1 configuration or three

drive RAID 5 configuration. To prepare for this, you will need another

SATA/ SATAII hard drive with a capacity equal to or greater than that

currently being used as the source hard drive.

1. Physically attach one additional SATA / SATAII hard drive to the SATAII

port not being used. Note the serial number of the hard drive already in

the system; you will use this to select it as the source hard drive when

initiating the migration.

2. Boot Windows®, install the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Manager software, if

not already installed, using the setup package obtained from a CD-ROM

or from the Internet. This will install the necessary Intel Storage Utility

and start menu links.

3. Open the Intel Storage Utility from the Start Menu and select “Create

RAIDvolume from Existing Hard Drive” from the Actions menu. This will

activate the Create RAID volume from Existing Hard Drive Wizard. Click

through the dialogs as prompted. It’s important to understand what will

occur during the migration process because any data on the destination

hard drive will be lost.

4. Once the migration is complete, reboot the system. If you migrated to a

RAID 0 volume, use Disk Management from within Windows®in order to

partition and format the empty space created when the two hard drive

capacities are combined. You may also use third-party software to

extend any existing partitions within the RAID volume.

6. Install the Intel(R) apid Storage software via the CD-ROM included with

your motherboard or after downloading it from the Internet. This will add

the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Console which can be used to manage the

RAID configuration.

7. After setting up a “RAID Ready” system as the above steps, you can

follow the procedures of the next section to migrate the system to

RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID 5.

2.3.4 Installing Windows®7 / 7 64-bit / VistaTM / VistaTM

64-bit With RAID Functions

Before you start to configure the RAID function, you need to

check the installation guide in the Support CD for proper

configuration. Please refer to the document in the Support CD,

“Guide to SATA Hard Disks Installation and RAIDConfiguration”,

which is located in the folder at the following path:

.. \ RAID Installation Guide

STEP 3: Install Windows®7 / 7 64-bit / VistaTM / VistaTM 64-bit

OS on your system.

Insert the Windows®7 / 7 64-bit / VistaTM / VistaTM 64-bit optical

disk into the optical drive to boot your system, and follow the

instruction to install Windows®7 / 7 64-bit / VistaTM / VistaTM

64-bit OS on your system. When you see “Where do you want

to install Windows?” page, please insert the ASRock Support

CD into your optical drive, and click the “Load Driver” button on

the left on the bottom to load the Intel®RAID drivers. Intel®RAID

drivers are in the following path in our Support CD:
