Hybrid graphics

Your notebook is equipped with a hybrid graphics system. By clicking the Quick Start

button, you can switch between battery-saver and performance mode.

Use the graphics unit integrated in the chip set for applications which are

less graphics-intensive, such as video playback, e-mail and Internet surﬁng.

This reduces heat generation, noise levels and power consumption. As a

result, battery life is increased (battery saver mode).

If you require a high level of performance, for example, for games, you can

switch to the external graphics unit (performance mode).

Change graphics mode

In your notebook, the external graphics mode is preconﬁgured ex works (performance mode).

A device connected to an HDMI port of your notebook (FullHD resolution) can only be

activated in performance mode via the external graphics unit.

►Click the Quick Start button Hybrid VGA on the Multimedia Board of your notebook:

The graphics display switches to battery-saver mode.

►Click the Quick Start Hybrid VGA button again.

The graphics display switches to performance mode.

Second hard drive in RAID group

Redundant ArrayofIndepe ndentDisksRAID

Removal and installation of the second hard disk must only be performed by

authorised service agents of Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH. Unauthorised

removal and installation will invalidate your warranty.

For further information and addresses of our service partners, please

see "http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/support".

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks, also: Disk Array) is a procedure for

combining two hard disks to create a logical unit.

A so-called disk array can be used advantageously to improve performance or

alternatively to improve error tolerance (data protection).

Error tolerance is facilitated by means of data redundancy. If one drive malfunctions,

a different drive contains an exact copy of the data. This can prevent an operating

system from malfunctioning or data from being lost.

The operating system detects all hard disks in a disk array as a single physical

hard disk. The individual disk drives in a disk array are called "members". Member

conﬁguration information is recorded in the reserved sector of the hard disk. With this

information the hard disk can be identiﬁed as a member.

There are usually a few methods by which hard disks can be combined. These methods

are referred to as different RAID levels. The different RAID levels represent different

performance and security levels as well as implementation costs.

Depending on the size of the hard disk, the process for combining two

hard drives to create a RAID group can take several hours. During this

time period, your screen will turn black.

For further information regarding the conﬁguration of your RAID systems, please

see the Help function of your Intel®Matrix Storage Manager Program.

Intel®Call up Matrix Storage Manager and Help function

To call up the Intel®Matrix Storage Manager program and the Help function, proceed as follows:

►Choose Start - All Programs - Intel®Matrix Storage Manager -Intel®Matrix Storage Manager.

The programme is started.

►In the upper menubar, click on Help.

The Help function for the Intel®Matrix Storage Manager program is called up.
