Introducing the UltraATA 133 PCI RAID
The UltraATA 133 PCI RAID is a ultra high-speed dual
channel Ultra ATA/133 controller for use in Pentium
class computers. It achieves burst data transfer rates up
to 133MB/sec and supports drive capacities greater than
137GB. It'senhancedBIOSauto-detectsdevicetypesand
fine tunes to the best performance for each connected
hard drive.

Hardware Installation
General instructions for installing the card are provided
below. Since the design of computer cases and
motherboards vary, refer to your computer’s reference
manual for further information, if needed.
Static Electricity Discharge may permanently damage
your system. Discharge any static electricity build up in
your body by touching your computer’s case for a few
seconds. Avoid any contact with internal parts and
handle cards only by their external edges.
1. Turn OFF the power to your computer and any
other connected peripheral devices.
2. Unplug the power cord from the back of the
computer.
3. Remove your computer’s cover.
4. Remove the slot bracket from an available PCI slot.
5. To install the card, carefully align the card's bus
connector with the selected PCI slot on the
motherboard. Push the board down firmly, but
gently, until it is well seated.
6. Replace the slot bracket's holding screw to secure
the card.
DeviceConnection
The UltraATA 133 PCI RAID is a dual channel Ultra ATA
133 controller that supports up to four IDE hard disk
drives. To achieve maximum performance and
compatibility we suggest using identical hard drives in
building your RAID sets.

In any given RAID set, it's best to install the hard drives
on separate channels, either Master to Master or Slave to
Slave. For example, if you are setting up a RAID set with
two hard drives, install the first drive on IDE1 as Master
and the second on IDE2 as Master. Use the same concept
for multiple hard drives.
Note: Onlythe40-pin/80-wireUltraATAcablecan
achieve hard disk UDMA 133 performance. When
attaching only two hard drives it is recommended
that they be connected on separate IDE channels.
1. If you plan to install two hard disk drives on the
IDE1 channel, make sure to configure one drive as
Master and the drive as Slave. Follow the hard drive
manufacturer’s instructions for the correct jumper
setting. The same rule must be followed for
connecting hard disk drives to the IDE2 channel.
2. Attach one end of the included Ultra ATA cable to
the IDE1 connector on the board. Make sure pin 1
on the cable (indicated by the stripe) matches pin 1
on the IDE1 connector.

3. Installtheharddiskdrivetoyourcomputer. Attach
the end connector of the Ultra ATA cable to the
connectoron the harddisk drive. Makecertain that
pin 1 on the cable (indicated by the stripe) matches
pin 1 on the hard disk drive’s connector. The same
procedureapplieswhenmakingconnectiontoIDE2.
Note: The ribbon cable has two connectors. If you
have one hard disk drive, connect it to the end
connector of cable and set it as master. If you have
a second hard disk drive, connect it to the middle
connector of cable and set it as slave.

to your computer.
RAID Arrays
RAID Arrays are setup in the UltraATA 133 PCI RAID

the RAID BIOS.
2. At the next screen press F2 to form a RAID set.
3. Press F1 to create RAID 0.
4. Choose the chunk size to be used in the RAID set
(64 is recommended).
5. Choosethenumberofharddrivesinyourstripeset.
6. Assign the hard drives to be used. For optimal
performance, alternate hard drives from seperate
IDE channels.
7. After all hard drives are entered, press Y to create
the RAID set.
8. Press ESC to exit the RAID BIOS and boot your
computer.
