just looking for some expertize in raid on this board, I have had mine since christmas last year and over the last two months I have been huge issues with the raid. I run a 120 gb SSD as primary drive and 2 x 1tb Seagate in raid 0 as my game drive on the Jmicron controller. Now for some reason the raid array disappears from windows. Boot the machine and it is there and can be access but after about 10 minutes it just simply drops off. Log out and reboot and it is back. Repeat ,repeat , repeat............
I have flashed bios changed sata cables and tested drives with seatools and can't seem to fix the issue....... at wits end here just about to say stuff it and by another mainboard but I would rather not
Any help and advice would be apreciated.

Be sure and check for firmware updates, especially the Seagates. A quick Google search shows 1TB Seagate drives (slightly older mind you) have had issues dropping out of Windows which was repaired with update.

While I only follow through this thread (have a CHIV not a Sabertooth) I do recall something about the latest Sabertooth bios updating the Raid Rom which requires the correct version Raid Driver to match. I'm running a modified bios on my CHIV which includes this very same Raid Rom update.
You may want to check what version you're running. http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/raid_windows.aspx

Hope this is of some help!

Thanks,

I will look into a firmware update on the drives they are both older drives I have had lying around for over 12 mths....

I am running the latest bios 1304

I had another play around last night and now I can't get them to appear in windows at all but the raid bios shows them mounted and ready to rock. If anyone is running raided drives and can give me any pointers, it could be something as simple as a wrong bois setting one that i missed

Is there a sensor in the bios that has an alarm for the gpu, like the one for the cpu?
Did that make sense?
Would there be a sensor that turns off the gpu?
The reason i ask is, i bought a msi 7950 and a waterblock and installed it, and after 20 -30 seconds it shuts off /shuts down, not the system, just the gpu.
I used another card to install windows.
When i run the 7950 it shows the bios for 10 -15seconds then stops and when i boot into windows, it runs until the desktop shows up, then stops.
I am installing it on a new ssd, so i dont think it is a driver issue and the card isnt even warn when it shuts down.
As for the sensor, i ask because, since i dont have a fan connected to the card, would it be known in the bios?
I know this is a long shot, but i want to try / ask EVERYTHING before i yank the waterblock off, reinstall the stock hsf and rma the dang thing.

thanks

When a board has more then 1 circuit supplying voltage to the cpu each circuit is called a phase. Each circuit use one choke 2 to 3 transistors(or a single intergrated circuit replacing the transistors) 1 or more electrolytic capacitors and 1 MOSFET
A two phase oboard has two of thes circuit both circuit are never both on at the sametime they are working out-of-phase hence the name "Phase"

a 2 phase bore will be a 50% board a 3 phase 33.3% a 4 phase 25% and so on. The benifet to this is a board that lasts longer and less heat

you should not use saved profile from one bios to another bios

each bios is written different and are not compatible with old bios profiles
