Intel Desktop Board DQ35JO Product Guide Intel® Rapid Recover Technology Intel Rapid Recover Technology enables fast and easy recovery of your data in the event of a hard drive failure. It allows you to maintain a complete copy of your primary or master drive onto a second hard drive, the recovery drive. If the master hard drive should fail, either from a mechanical failure or the result of a virus, recovery is as simple as booting from the recovery drive. The recovery drive can be attached to your system via any standard SATA or eSATA connection. Intel Rapid Recover Technology also provides the added benefit of allowing the recovery drive to be mounted as a read-only volume so you can quickly copy files from the recovery drive when individual files need to be recovered. For information on configuring your system for Intel Rapid Recover Technology see Chapter 5. Expandability For system expansion, the Desktop Board provides the following expansion slots: • Two PCI Express x1 connectors • One PCI Express x16 connector • One PCI bus connector BIOS The BIOS provides the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, the PCI/PCI Express and IDE auto-configuration utilities, and the video BIOS. The BIOS is stored in the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Flash. The BIOS can be updated by following the instructions on page 65 in Chapter 3. Serial ATA and IDE Auto Configuration If you install a Serial ATA or IDE device (such as a hard drive) in your computer, the auto-configuration utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the device for your computer. You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after installing a Serial ATA or IDE device. You can override the auto-configuration options by specifying manual configuration in the BIOS Setup program. PCI* and PCI Express* Auto Configuration If you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card in your computer, the PCI/PCI Express auto-configuration utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the resources (IRQs, DMA channels, and I/O space) for that add-in card. You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card. 22
