Cable Connections
1.
Attach the SATA hard drives (up to 5) to the SATA ports on the Hardware
Port Multiplier (HPM) using SATA cables. It is recommended to connect
drives to the SATA ports 1 to 5 successively.
2.
To provide power to the HPM, connect a 4-pin floppy power cable from the
system power supply to the floppy power connector on the HPM.
3.
Optional: Connect LEDs to the Activity & Error LED jumper block
Setting or Modifying the RAID Mode Using the JMicron
HW RAID Manager Utility Program:
1.
For Windows users, install the JMicron HW RAID Manager located on the
SATA Controller CD. In the CD, go to Configuration Utilities > JMB393. This
manager can be use to create and monitor the status of the RAID volume.
It is recommended to use the default factory RAID DIP switch setting when
using the JMicron HW RAID Manager.
2.
Modify the RAID mode on the 5-port HPM-XA using DIP switch
Recommended to be used on operating system without JMicron HW RAID
Manager support like Linux, Mac & Solaris. Windows users can also use the
procedure below.
Note: Steps A to D need to be performed each time the raid mode is modified.
a.
Set the DIP switch as shown below.
b.
Press the RAID setting button with a ball point pen.
c.
While pressing the RAID setting button turn on the system power
where the HPM is connected. The buzzer will sound while holding the
RAID setting button. Release it after at least 5 seconds for hardware
initialization. A single beep will be heard to indicate initialization is
completed. The above steps act as a reset.
d.
Power off the system power.
Notes on Spare Drives using the Easy RAID Setting (EZ)
When EZ function is ENABLED, the auto-rebuilding to spare drive is automatic.
The degraded RAID group will start rebuilding automatically by using the existing
spare drive.
* Spare drive can be either plugged after RAID building or a new drive can be plug
as the spare drive when RAID rebuild is required.
When will rebuild action start?
•
When the raid fails and EZ is enabled, the HPM-XA will
automatically rebuild the RAID group using the spare.
•
When the raid fails and EZ is disabled, the HPM-XA will NOT
rebuild the raid group unless you install a good drive to replace the
failed
drive.
