1.3.2 JP9(Vcore+) CPU core voltage select jumper
This function offers adjustable processor Vcore. When NO jumper caps are used, the
motherboard automatically generates the proper Vcore voltage that requested by the
CPU. Place the jumper cap over pins 1-2 to increase 5% more voltage to the processor’s
Vcore. Place the jumper cap over pins 2-3 to increase 10% more voltage to the
processor’s Vcore.

Chapter 2 Overview
Introduction
The VD133Pro motherboard is the most flexible platform in today’s market based on the HPT368 chipset
support IDE RAID function. A major advancement in chipset technology, VIA 694X chipset support
PC66/PC100/PC133SDRAM.(VD133PLdoesn’tsuposrtIDERAIDfunction)
This motherboard supports Intel/Cyrix/Katmai/Cumine processors. It can support the processors that
packed as a PPGA or FCPGA type. In other words, no matter what kind of processors you have, the
VD133Pro / VD133 PL motherboard always provides you an adequate solution.
What is RAID?
RAID stands for Redundant Array Independent Disk, it was developed by a group of scientists at
University of California at Berkeley in 1987. The scientists investigated using small disk drivers clustered
into an array and compared the performance and cost of this type of storage configuration to the use of
a Single Large Expensive Disk (SLED), commonly found in mainframe application. The conclusion was
that arrays of smaller and less expensive disks out performed the performance of the SLED.
However, disk performance is not the only requirement in today’s Information Technology market. As
more network storage capacity expands, the more critical it becomes to safely backup the data in the
disks. While tape or MO backup meets the recovery requirements, it does not ensure the continuous
availability and data integrity necessary to keep your system up and running. To solve this, the scientists
proposed five types of redundant array architectures, known as RAID level 1 through 5. Each RAID
level defines hoe redundancy is achieved and data is distributed across the drives I the array.
What is IDE RAID?
RAID was associated with SCSI interface only in the past. The capital outlay generally puts people out
of the door. This situation is about to change with the introduction of IWILL VD133 Pro™. A high
performance IDE RAID host adapter, with Ultra ATA66 interface. The SIDE RAID66™offers RAID 0
(Striping), RAID 1 (Mirroring) and RAID 0+1 (Striping + Mirroring) functions, and supports the Ultra
ATA 33/66 hard disks commonly found in the market today.
