ESD Precautions
Computer boards have integrated circuits sensitive to static electricity. To prevent chipsets
from electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions:

Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are
ready to install them.

Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system
unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body.

Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when
handling boards and components.

Jumper Settings
Jumper is a small component consisting of jumper clip and jumper pins. Install jumper clip on 2
jumper pins to close. And remove jumper clip from 2 jumper pins to open. The following
illustration shows how to set up jumper.
Before applying power to SHB131 Series, please make sure all of the jumpers are in factory
default position. Below you can find a summary table of all jumpers and onboard default
settings.
Once the default jumper setting needs to be changed, please do it under power-off
condition.

Installing the Memory
The board has two 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM memory sockets with maximum memory
capacity up to 16GB. The following image illustrates the location of the sockets:
DIMM1
Note
DIMM2
To prevent severe damage to both the motherboard and the components, power
must be turned off before adding or removing SO-DIMMs or other system
components.
Please follow steps below to install the memory modules:


Locate the memory module, insert the gold colored contact into the socket, and push the
module down until it is firmly seated by locking two latches on the sides.
Install any remaining SO-DIMM modules.

AMI BIOS Setup Utility
The AMI UEFI BIOS provides users with a built-in setup program to modify basic system
configuration. All configured parameters are stored in a flash chip to save the setup information
whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides users with detailed description about
how to set up basic system configuration through the AMI BIOS setup utility.
5.1
Starting
To enter the setup screens, follow the steps below:
1.
2.
Turn on the computer and press the <Del> key immediately.
After you press the <Del> key, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the
other setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as the Advanced and Chipset
menus.
If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with BIOS
setup, you can restore BIOS optimal defaults by setting JP3 (see section 2.3.2).
Note
It is strongly recommended that you should avoid changing the chipset’s defaults. Both AMI
and your system manufacturer have carefully set up these defaults that provide the best
performance and reliability.
5.2
Navigation Keys
The BIOS setup/utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of the BIOS
setup utility hot keys can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys
include <F1>, <F2>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, and so on.
Some of the navigation keys differ from one screen to another.

Configuring SATA for RAID
B.1
Configuring SATA Hard Drive(s) for RAID (Controller:
®
Intel Haswell ULT PCH)
Before you begin the SATA configuration, please prepare:

Two SATA hard drives (to ensure optimal performance, it is recommended that you use
two hard drives with identical model and capacity). If you do not want to create RAID with
the SATA controller, you may prepare only one hard drive.
Please follow up the steps below to configure SATA hard drive(s):
1.
2.
3.
Install SATA hard drive(s) in your system.
Enter the BIOS Setup to configure SATA controller mode and boot sequence.
Configure RAID by the RAID BIOS.
1. Installing SATA hard drive(s) in your system.
Connect one end of the SATA signal cable to the rear of the SATA hard drive, and the other end
to available SATA port(s) on the board. Then, connect the power connector of power supply to
the hard drive.
2. Configuring SATA controller mode and boot sequence by the BIOS Setup.
You have to make sure whether the SATA controller is configured correctly by system BIOS
Setup and set up BIOS boot sequence for the SATA hard drive(s).
Configuring SATA for RAID
43
SHB131 Full-size CPU Card
2.1. Turn on your system, and then press the <Del> button to enter BIOS Setup during running
POST (Power-On Self Test). If you want to create RAID, just go to the Advanced Settings
menu\SATA Configuration, select the “SATA Mode Selection”, and press <Enter> for more
options.
A list of options appears, please select “RAID”.
2.2. Save and exit the BIOS Setup.
44
Configuring SATA for RAID
SHB131 Full-size CPU Card
3. Configuring RAID by the RAID BIOS.
Enter the RAID BIOS setup utility to configure a RAID array. Skip this step and proceed if you
do not want to create a RAID.
3.1. After the POST memory testing and before the operating system booting, a message
"Press <Ctrl-I> to enter Configuration Utility" shows up, accordingly, press <Ctrl + I> to
enter the RAID BIOS setup utility.
3.2. After you press <Ctrl + I>, the Create RAID Volume screen will appear. If you want to
create a RAID array, select the Create RAID Volume option in the Main Menu and press
<Enter>.

45
SHB131 Full-size CPU Card
3.3. After entering the Create Volume Menu screen, you can type the disk array name with
1~16 letters (letters cannot be special characters) in the item “Name”.
3.4. When finished, press <Enter> to select a RAID level. There are two RAID levels: RAID0
and RAID1. Select a RAID level and press <Enter>.
46
Configuring SATA for RAID
SHB131 Full-size CPU Card
3.5. Set the stripe block size. The KB is the standard unit of stripe block size. The stripe block
size can be 4KB to 128KB. After the setting, press <Enter> for the array capacity.
3.6. After setting all the items on the menu, select Create Volume and press <Enter> to start
creating the RAID array.

47
SHB131 Full-size CPU Card
3.7. When prompting the confirmation, press <Y> to create this volume, or <N> to cancel the
creation.
After the creation is completed, you can see detailed information about the RAID Array in the
Disk/Volume Information section, including RAID mode, disk block size, disk name, and disk
capacity, etc.

Delete RAID volume
If you want to delete a RAID volume, select the Delete RAID Volume option in Main Menu.
Press <Enter> and follow on-screen instructions.
Please press <Esc> to exit the RAID BIOS utility. Now, you can proceed to install a SATA driver
controller and the operating system.
