Make sure the following items are included in your purchase:
•RR3700 controller card
•Low Profile Bracket
•Quick Installation Guide
4. Using the RocketRAID 3700
4.1. Using the RocketRAID Series HBA BIOS
4.1.1 RocketRAID BIOS Setting Utility
The RocketRAID controller BIOS utility is an interface that provides management commands and controller related settings.
After installing the RAID controller and powering on the system, the RAID controller BIOS should post during the system’s boot
procedure.
Use Ctrl + H key to log-in to the BIOS setting utility. The BIOS setting utility can be used for RAID management. The BIOS Utility
will display information about hard drives attached to the adapter. Make sure all attached drives are detected by this utility. If
any of the hard drives is not detected, power down the system and check the power and cable connections.
Note: The following screenshots depict the RocketRAID 3700 BIOS utility. However, all RocketRAID models utilize the same
interface.

7
4.1.2 Using the BIOS Utility
The following keys are utilized by the RocketRAID BIOS utility:
Arrow keys – Use these to move between different menu items.
Enter – Open the selected toolbar command/execute the selected command.
Esc – Move back to the previous menu, cancel the selected operation, or exit the BIOS Utility.
4.1.3 BIOS Commands
Create: This command is used to open the RAID Creation menu.
Delete:This command will delete the selected RAID array.
Add/Remove Spare: This command is used to assign hard disks to function as spare disks. The controller is capable of using
spare disks to automatically rebuild broken or faulted RAID arrays.
Settings:This command opens the settings menu (To selecting the boot disk/array, staggered drive spin up etc.)
View:This command is used to view hard disk and RAID information.
Initialize:This command is used to prepare disks for use with RAID arrays. Disks must be initialized before they can be used to
create arrays.
4.1.4 Creating RAID Arrays
Initializing Disks:
Before creating a RAID array, the disks must be initialized. Disk initialization writes necessary RAID configuration
information to the hard disks. Select the Initialize command from the toolbar, and press the Enter key.
Highlight the target disks using the arrow keys, and then press the Enter key. A numeral will be displayed before
each selected disk. Once all target disks have been selected, press ESC key. The utility will display a warning, and
ask you to press Y (yes) to initialize, or N (no) to cancel. Once initialized, these disks can be used to create RAID
arrays. These disks will be displayed as “Initialized” (under Status).
Warning: Initialization will destroy all pre- existing data on the selected hard disks. Only initialize disks that do not

8
contain critical data.
Create Arrays:
Select Create from the toolbar and press the Enter key.
1. Use the arrow keys to select the RAID level and press the Enter key.
2. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Array Name option and press the Enter key. The array name dialogue box
will appear. Use the keyboard to input a new Array Name, and press the Enter key.
Note: The Array Name command is optional – it is not necessary to name the array. The array can be named at a
later time, and the name of the array can be changed at any time.
3. On the Create menu, use the arrow keys to highlight the Select Devices item and press the Enter key. A device
list will appear, and display all available hard disk drives.
4. Highlight the target disks that you want to use, and press the Enter key to select them. A numeral will be
displayed before each selected disk. This number designates disk order. After all of the disks have been
selected and press the ESC key to return to the Create Menu.
5. Next, Use the↓arrow key to highlight the Capacity (GB) option and press the Enter key. The total available
capacity will be displayed. Press the Enter key if you wish to use all available space. If you wish to reserve disk
space for additional arrays/single disks, use the keyboard to input the amount of space (in GB) you wish to set
aside for this particular array, and press the Enter key.
Note: Multiple arrays can be created using the same set of hard disk drives. The Capacity option allows you to set
aside disk space that be used to create another array, set as a spare disk, or partitioned to act as a single disk (by
the operating system).

9
6. For redundant RAID arrays (RAID 5, 50), select the Cache Policy:
Write Back – Provides higher write performance for redundant RAID arrays. Data is at risk when there is a
power failure, system kernel panic and unresponsive abnormal conditions.
Write Through – Writes directly to the disks (may reduce the risk of data loss during a critical failure, but at
the cost of lower performance).
7. Sector Size – Also known as “Variable Sector Size”. Use this option if you are using an older 32-bit Windows
operating system. This allows older operating systems to support volumes over 2TB in size. Do not use if the
operating system already supports large volumes (such as GPT).
8. To complete the creation procedure, use the arrow key to highlight the Start Creation item and press the Enter
key.
The Window will show 2 options when creating a RAID 5 array: Background Initialization and No initialization.
Background initialization:
The RAID array is accessible while disk initialization is being performed.
A. This option will delete all content on the disks.
B. The initialization time will be longer when compared to "Foreground" but the logical drives can be used
during the initialization process.
No initialization:
The No initialization option is recommended for use when rescuing an original array of for testing purposes.
This option will not make any changes to the data area of each disk. When you select this option, a pop-up
window will display; press Y (yes) to create the array, or N (no) to cancel the creation process.
4.1.5 Delete Arrays
Highlight the Delete command from the toolbar, and press the Enter key.
The BIOS utility will display a list of available RAID arrays. Select the array you wish to delete, and press the Enter
key.
The utility will display a warning message. Press Y (yes) to delete the array, or select N (no) to cancel.
Warning: All data stored on the array will be lost – do not delete if the array contains critical data.
4.1.6 Add/Remove Spare Disks
The Add/Remove Spare command is used to assign a hard disk to act as a Spare Disk. Spare Disks are used to

10
automatically rebuild Redundant RAID arrays (RAID 1, 5, 10) in the case of disk failure. As with creating RAID arrays,
disks must be initialized before they can be used as spares. To set a hard disk to act as a Spare Disk, use the arrow
keys to select the target disk from the list of initialized disks, and press the Enter key. To remove the Spare Disk
setting from a hard disk, highlight the spare disk, and press the Enter key. Generally, single disks are designated to
act as spares (disks that are not configured into RAID arrays). However, in some instances, disks that are members
of RAID arrays may also be designated to act as a spare. If the disks in question are part of a RAID array that did not
utilize the full available capacity at the time of creation, these disks may be used as spares.
4.1.7 Settings
To access the Settings menu, highlight the Settings command from the toolbar, and press the Enter key. There are
Select Boot Device and Parameter Setting options in the menu.
Select Boot Device:
Select which disk or array will act as the boot disk, if the motherboard BIOS instructs the card to act as the boot
device.
▪When booting up the system, press CTRL + H during the HighPoint RocketRAID splash screen to enter the
BIOS RAID creation utility.
▪Navigate to Settings using arrow keys.
▪Press Enter.
▪Press Enter again.
▪Select the desired RAID array.
▪You will return to the main screen once the boot flag is set
Staggered Spin up:
The default value of this option is disabled. Enabling this setting will instruct the card to power up the hard disks,
sequentially (one disk approximately every 2 seconds). Not all disk support this setting – consult the disk
documentation for more information.
4.1.8 View
The View menu provides two options:
Devices – This option will display information for each disk hosted by the HBA.
RAID Array – This option will display information about each RAID array hosted by the HBA. Highlight the target
device and press the Enter key to view details about the configuration.

Creating an Array
To create an array:
1. Log into HRM
2. Select the proper controller from the drop down on the top left
3. Click Logical
4. Click Create Array

14
Array Type:
An array is a collection of physical disks that will be seen as one virtual drive by your Operating System (OS).
The RR3700 is capable of creating the following array types:
•RAID 0 — Striping
•RAID 1 — Mirroring
•RAID 5 – 1 drive redundant
•RAID 6 – 2 drive redundant
•RAID 1/0 — Striping Mirrored array
•RAID 5/0 – 1 drive redundant mirror
Each RAID level has its pros and cons based on the application you use it for (Note: Refer to RAID level Quick
Reference)
Array Name: the name that will be displayed in Logical Device
Information (Default: RAID_<level>_<array number>)
Initialization Method: Initialization of a disk sets all data bits to 0, essentially clearing all the data on the drive. It is
important to initialize disks as previous data physically stored on the drive may interfere with new data.
•Keep Old Data: This option skips the initialization process and all data on each physical disk of the array
will be untouched.
•Quick Init: This option grants immediate access to the RAID array by skipping the initialization process,
but it will delete all data. Note: Skipping initialization is generally not recommended as residual data on
disks may interfere with new data in the future.
•Foreground: The array initialization process will be set at high priority. During this time array is not
accessible, but the initialization process will complete much faster. (Recommended)
•Background: The array initialization process will have a lower priority. During this time the array
will be accessible, but the initialization process will take much longer to complete.
Note: Initializing takes a significant amount of time (approximately 2 hours per 1 TB when using hard drives).
Background and Foreground Initialization
Foreground initializing the array will completely zero out the data on the disks, meaning the disk will be completely
wiped and every bit on the disk will be set to 0. Background initialization means the array will still be created, and
you can still write new data onto the array. But when your array requires rebuilding, residual data left behind may
interfere with the process.
Cache Policy (Default: Write Back)
Write Back – Any data written to the array will be stored as cache, resulting in better I/O performance at the risk of
data failures due to power outages. Data will be stored as cache before it is physically written to the disk; when a
power outage occurs, any data in the cache will be lost.
Write Through – Data written to an array is directly written onto the disk, meaning lower write performance for
higher data availability. Without cache acting as a buffer, write performance will be noticeably slower but data loss
due to power outages or other failures is significantly minimized.
Block Size (default: 512K)
[128K to 512K are the supported block sizes]

15
Adjusting the block size towards your disk usage can result in some performance gain.
In a typical RAID configuration, data of the virtual drive is striped (or spread across) the physical drives. Having a
smaller array block size will increase the likelihood of accessing all physical drives when processing large I/O requests.
Multiple physical drives working in parallel increases the throughput, meaning better performance.
For smaller I/O requests (512 bytes to 4 kilobytes), it is better to have each individual disks handle their own I/O
request, improving the IOPS (I/O per second), rather than having one tiny I/O request being handled by multiple
disks.
Capacity (Default: Maximum)
The total amount of space you want the RAID array to take up. When creating RAID levels, disk capacities are limited
by the smallest disk.
An example of how disk capacities are limited by smallest disk.
•You have 2 drives connected to the enclosure.
•The first drive is 6 TB, the second is 4 TB
•After creating a RAID level 1 using both drives and maximum capacity, the first drive will have 2 TB, the
second 0 TB of free capacity
•The free capacity on the second drive can be used to create a separate array with other drives.
You may also choose how much space each array will utilize. You can use the remaining space to create another array
(up to 4 arrays are supported).
Adding Spare Disks
Spare disks are physical disks that will immediately replace critical disks in an array.

16
To add spare disks:
1. Log into the HRM
2. Click Logical
3. Click Spare Pool:
4. Check the box for the disk you want as a spare under Available
Disks
5. Click Add Spare, and confirm by selecting OK from the pop-up window:
6. The disk has now been assigned as a spare. Click OK to confirm:
Disks added to the spare pool will be displayed under Spare Pool and can be removed by checking the box before
the target drive, then click the Remove Spare button.
Physical drives marked as a spare will automatically be added to an array whenever there is a disk failure. This feature
minimizes the chances of a data loss by reducing the time an array is in the critical status.

17
Obtaining Logical Device Information
The Logical device tab is the default page after clicking the Logical tab of the HRM. This page contains information
about your RAID arrays and the individual disks your system detects.
Logical Device Information
Arrays you create and the properties associated with them will appear here.
Maintenance
Once an array has been created, the Maintenance menu provides options to maintain or edit it. To access the
Maintenance menu, click the Maintenance button towards the right-hand side of the array name.
Array Information
Clicking on the maintenance button will show you the Array information box. Different array statuses (Normal, critical,
disabled) will have different maintenance options.
Array Information &Maintenance Options: Normal Status
Arrays with the Normal status are healthy and functioning properly.
Arrays with the Normal status will have the following options:
Delete – deletes the selected RAID array
Verify – verifies the integrity of the RAID array
Rename – renames the RAID array.

18
Array Information & Maintenance Options: Critical Status
Arrays in the Critical status can be accessed and utilized, but are no longer fault tolerant. A Critical array should be
rebuilt as soon as possible to restore redundancy.
A critical status array has all the normal status options except the following:
•The Array can no longer be renamed
•Add Disk replaces the Verify Disk option
Once the array status changes to critical, the faulty disk will be taken offline and you can either:
•Reinsert the same disk
•Insert new disk
Reinserting the same disk should trigger the rebuilding status, since data on the disk would be recognized.
If you insert a new disk, clicking Add Disk will give you the option to select that disk and add it to the array.
If a spare disk is available, an array that has entered the critical state will begin rebuilding using the next available
spare disk.
Array Information & Maintenance Options: Disabled Status

19
An array with the Disabled status means that the RAID level does not have enough disks to function.
•Your data will be inaccessible
•Rebuilding will not trigger, since the RAID array does not have enough parity data to rebuild.
Your options in Maintenance are:
•Delete
Delete – will delete the array
Physical Device Information
•Location — which controller and port the drive is located in
•Model — model number of the drive connected
•Capacity — total capacity of the drive
•Max Free — total capacity that is not configured
•Revision — revised version of drive
•Status — Current state of drive
•PCIe Width — PCIe width occupied by drivers
•PCIe Speed — Rate of current bandwidth
Rescan
Clicking rescan will force the drivers to report the array status. For any disk(s) you hot plug into the device; do not
click rescan until all physical drives are detected and appear under Logical Device Information.
System Setting

20
Using this tab, you can change the following:
•Enable auto-rebuilding
•Enable rebuilding on error
•Enable audible alarm
•Set Spindown Idle Disk(minutes)
•Restrict to localhost
•Set rebuild priority
•Change port number
•Change HRM password
System Setting
Enable auto rebuild (default: Enabled)
When a physical drive fails, the controller will take the drive offline. Once you re-insert or replace the disk, the
controller will not automatically rebuild the array unless this option is enabled.
Enable continue rebuilding on error (default: Enabled)
When enabled, the rebuilding process will ignore bad disk sectors and continue rebuilding until completion. When
the rebuild is finished, the data may be accessible but may also be inconsistent, due to any bad sectors that were
ignored during the procedure. If this option is enabled, HighPoint recommends checking the event log periodically
for bad sectors warnings.
Enable audible alarm(default: Enable)
When the disk is dropped, the buzzer will beep. If this option is disable, you won't hear any sound.
Set Spindown Idle Disk(minutes)(default:Diable)
If this option is disabled, the disk attached to the RR3740A will not stop spinning. If you set the time limit, the disk
will stop rotating according to the specified time when the system is not reading or writing.
Restrict to localhost access (default: Enabled)
Remote access to the controller will be restricted when enabled; other users in your network will be unable to
remotely log in to the HRM.
Rebuild Priority (default: Medium)
You can specify the amount of system resources you want to dedicate to rebuilding the array. There are 5 levels of
priority [Lowest, Low, Medium, High, Highest]
Port Number (default: 7402)
The default port that the HighPoint HRM listens on is 7402. You may change it to any open port.
