Marvell BIOS Utility for RAID/HyperDuo setup

Warning: All the data on the hard disks connected to the controller card will be permanently erase in the following actions.

To create a RAID/HyperDuo virtual disk:

1.Power up you computer, skip this section if you are not going to create a RAID/HyperDuo virtual disk.

2.Press the [ctrl]+[M] key on the keyboard at the same time to enter the Marvell BIOS utility

3.Once the BIOS is entered, scroll to HBA: Marvell 0 in the topology pane by the up and arrow key on the keyboard and please Enter

4.Choose Configuration Wizard and press Enter to start creating the RAID/ HyperDuo virtual disk

5.Select the free physical disk available by using the arrow keys to scroll though the disks and press Space Bar. After selecting all the disks needed, press Enter to continue.

6.Choose the RAID Option:

RAID LEVEL: RAID 0- striping

RAID 1-Disk Mirroring

RAID 10-Stripe of mirrors

Stripe size: 32k, 64k

Name: any value for the user to input

7.Choose the HyperDuo option:

HyperDuo mode: Safe-mirrored protection

Capacity-cost-Optimized

Keep original data: Yes, No (only available in safe mode)

Preserve the data currently on your HDD or erase all data

Threshold (%):10-100 for the users to input

The number defines to percentage of your SSD the Bios users to optimize performance .Default is 90

8.Choose NEXT and press [Y] key to start creating the virtual disk

9.Press F10 and[Y] key to exit the Marvell bios utility

Note: A hyperDuo virtual disk must at least contain one SSD and one HDD

To rebuild a virtual disk

1.When a hard disk in a RAID 1 virtual disk or a SSD in a hyperDuo safe mode virtual disk is defective or the data inside are corrupted, the Marvell Bios Utility will mark the virtual disk as degrade.

2.Replace the defective hard disk /SSD with an identical hard disk/SSD or a hard disk /SSD which has a smaller size within the allowable value set for the virtual disk.

3.Press the [ctrl]+[M] key on the keyboard at the same time to enter the BIOS.

4.In the Topology pane. Scroll to the virtual disk, Press Enter and select the Rebuild option.

5.Select the available replacement hard disk /SSD to be rebuilt to by pressing Space Bar and then Enter

6.Press [Y] key to start. The utility will show the rebuild status and the completed percentage. This will take a long time to finish the whole process and it depends on the size to be rebuilt

Note: HyperDuo virtual disk created in safe mode can be partially rebuilt if the SSD fails, but not if the HDD fails.

Marvell Storage Utility (MSU) for RAID/HyperDuo setup

The Marvell storage utility is a browser-based management utility for Marvell 88SE92XX controllers. It creates and manages a RAID or HyperDuo virtual using storage devices connected to the 88SE92XX controller.
