Online Manual Supports data striping (RAID 0) and mirroring (RAID 1). Provides dramatic increase in drive performance and/or fault tolerant options. Offers performance customization and data rebuilds from the BIOS menu. Mirroring supports automatic background rebuilds. Fault tolerance can be restored automatically without rebooting. Supports up to four IDE drives which capacities are more than 8.4GB on the two IDE RAID connectors while still supporting four IDE devices on the motherboard. The burst data transfer rates can up to 100MB/s from ATA/100 drives to boot overall system performance. Supports IDE Bus Master operation allows multi-tasking during disk drives transfer which increase CPU efficiency, then the CPU is free to process task during IDE data transfer through PCI bus interface to/from system memory. 2. 3. On-board AC97 Sound DX34R-U M/B uses the AD 1885 AC97 sound chip. This on-board audio includes a complete audio recording and playback system. Four USB Connectors Providing two ports, four USB connectors for USB interface devices, such as mouse, keyboard, modem, scanner, etc. Dr. LED The Dr. LED has 8 LEDs on the DX34R-U motherboard can easily shows what kind of problems you may encounter. 13 DX34R-U Power Management/Plug and Play Online Manual The DX34R-U Motherboard supports the power management function that confirms to the power-saving standards of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star program. It also offers Plug-and-Play, which helps save users from configuration problems, thus making the system much more user-friendlier. Hardware Monitoring Management Supports CPU or system fans status, temperature and voltage monitoring and alert, through the on-board hardware monitor module. Enhanced ACPI Fully implement the ACPI standard for Windows ® 98/ME/2000 series compatibility, and supports Soft-Off, STR (Suspend to RAM, S3), STD (Suspend to Disk, S4), WOM (Wake On Modem), WOL (Wake On LAN) features. Super Multi-I/O The DX34R-U provides one high-speed UART compatible serial port and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. If you need more serial ports, please considering using PCI serial port add-on card. 14 DX34R-U Q ui c k I n s t a l l a t i o n P r o c e d ur e This page gives you a quick procedure on how to install your system.
