Q&A
1.
Q:
How to set RAID as startup disk?
A:
Please set booting device to Array0 and set as SCSI boot in the BIOS.
2.
Q:
Is CD ROM able to be used?
A:
IT8212 supports either RAID controller (which supports hard drives
only) or pure IDE controller (which supports hard drives and CD ROM)
with different BIOS code.
3.
Q:
How can two RAID0 perform well?
A:
For two RAID0, it is suggested that HD should be put in different
channels to get a better performance.
4.
Q:
Is a special m
obile
r
ack
necessary for HOT Swap?
A:
It’s not necessary. The regular one is just enough.
5.
Q:
What if R1 and R0+1 just create RAID but don’t Rebuild right away?
A:
It is suggested that they should Rebuild as soon as possible because the
HD data of two mirrors are different and if the HD with the correct data is
damaged, the data will lose.
6.
Q:
For R0+1, when two HDs in the same channel are hot swapping at the same
time, sometimes AP can’t find that Slave is back again.
A:
This situation may happen to some HDs. To avoid this situation, please set
Slave HD first then set Master HD.
