User's Manual
Appendix D Glossary
48-bit LBA
Technology used with hard drives larger than 137GB
Array Roaming
Ability to move a complete RAID array from one computer system to another
computer system and preserve the RAID configuration information and data
on that RAID array.
BIOS
Basic Input/Output System
Block size
Same term as ‘Strip size’: Grouping of data on a single physical disk within a
RAID Volume
Burst transfer rate
Maximum burst rate of the drive. These short transfers usually account for a
small percentage of total transfer requests, mostly from the integrated
controller cache or buffer.
Create From Existing Disk
Feature in the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition which allows
flexibility to upgrade from a single Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive to a two drive
RAID 0 configuration when an additional SATA hard drive is added to the
system without loss of data.
Disks
Physical disks attached to a RAID controller
IDE
Integrated Drive Electronics
IDE to Serial ATA Adaptor
Also referred to as “Serial ATA converter” or “device side dongle.” Connects
IDE hard drive to Serial ATA port
ICH5R
Intel 82801ER I/O Controller Hub
Intel® Option ROM
Standard PnP option ROM that provides a pre-operating system user interface
for the Intel RAID implementation. Also allows boot order to be selected from
within the BIOSes setup utility.
Port0
Serial ATA port (connector) on a motherboard identified as Port0
Port1
Serial ATA port (connector) on a motherboard identified as Port1
POST
Power-On Self Test
RAID
Redundant Array of Independent Disks
RAID 0
Data striping Array. RAID 0 stripes the data across all the drives but doesn’t
utilize parity. This RAID level is designed for speed and is the fastest of the
RAID levels but provides the least protection.
RAID 1
Mirrored Disk Array. RAID 1 requires that each primary data disk have a
mirrored disk. The contents of the primary disk and the mirror disk are
identical. RAID 1 provides the best data protection but is slower than RAID
level 0. Note: Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition version 3.0 does not
support RAID 1.
RAID Array
A group of physical disk drives managed by either hardware, software, or a
combination of both
RAID Ready
Term used to describe a system that an end-user can turn into a RAID system
by simply adding a second Serial ATA hard drive and invoking the migration
feature
