Introduction
Chapter1 <Introduction>
1.1 <Product Overview>
2804040 is the motherboard with last Intel desktop technology with Mini-ITX form factor.
Based on Intel® 945G and ICH7R, the board integrates a new Pentium 4 processor 775-pin
socket, DDR2 memory socket, Intel® Graphic Media Accelerator 950 technology, PCI
express interface and Serial ATA II with RAID function for a powerful desktop system.
Intel® LGA775 processor
The Intel® Pentium 4 processor now comes with a new form factor with 775-pin PLGA
package, for 533/800/1066MHz front-side-bus, 1MB L2 cache, and for 90nm manufacturing
technology, the PLGA processor without pin header on solder side can make user installing
the processor on the socket easier.
Intel® 945G and ICH7R chipset
The Intel 945G integrates DDR2 400/533/667MHz for memory, and Graphic Media
Accelerator (GMA) 950 technology for new graphic engine. It can provide up to 224MB of
frame buffer when you install over 256MB of system memory. The ICH7R integrates with up
to 4 USB2.0 interfaces (4 ports for 2804040), and serial ATA II interface with RAID function.
Four Marvell E8053
Four Gigabit LAN with Marvell E8053, 2804040 comes with a powerful network function for
the system that requires large transfer data of NAS system or Server platform.
PCI-Express interface
2804040 integrates a x16 PCI-Express interface, it can provide up to 8GB/s of bandwidth,
which AGP 8x can only provide up to 2GB/s.
Multimedia interfaces
2804040 also integrates 7.1 channel AC97 audio, mini-PCI interface and IEEE1394 port, for
these flexible function, system integrator can built more powerful systems for many
applications.

3.2 <SATA RAID Configuration>
The board integrates Intel® ICH7R with RAID function for Serial ATA II drives, and supports
the configurations below:
RAID 0 (Stripping): Two hard drives operating as one drive for optimized data R/W
performance. It needs two unused drives to build this operation.
RAID 1 (Mirroring): Copies the data from first drive to second drive for data security, and if
one drive fails, the system would access the applications to the workable drive. It needs two
unused drives or one used and one unused drive to build this operation. The second drive
must be the same or lager size than first one.
RAID 5 (striping with parity)
A RAID 5 array contains three or more hard drives where the data is divided into
manageable blocks called strips. Parity is a mathematical method for recreating data that
was lost from a single drive, which increases fault-tolerance. The data and parity are striped
across all the hard drives in the array. The parity is striped in a rotating sequence to reduce
bottlenecks associated with the parity calculations.
RAID 10 (RAID 0+1)
A RAID 10 array uses four hard drives to create a combination of RAID levels 0 and 1. The
data is striped across a two-drive array forming the RAID 0 component. Each of the drives
in the RAID 0 array is then mirrored by a RAID 1 component.
Intel Matrix Storage Technology: This technology would allow you to use RAID 0+1 mode
on only two drives (4 drives needed on traditional RAID 0+1). It will create two partitions on
each hard drive to simulate RAID 0 and RAID 1. It also can let you modify the partition size
without re-formatted.
For more information of Intel Matrix Storage Technology, please visit Intel¶s website.
If you need to install an operation system on the RAID set, please use the driver disk
attached in the package when it informs you to obtain the RAID drivers.
