ESATA

External SATA port

This port connects to an external Serial ATA
hard disk drive. To configure a RAID 0, a RAID
1, or a JBOD set, install an external
Serial ATA hard disk drive and an internal
Serial ATA hard disk drive to the SATA
connector labelled SATA_RAID1.

The external SATA port supports external Serial ATA 3.0
Gb/s devices. Longer cables support higher power
requirements to deliver signal up to two meters away, and
enables improved hot-swap function.

z Before creating a RAID set using Serial ATA hard disks,

make sure that you have connected the Serial ATA
signal cable and installed Serial ATA hard disk drives;
otherwise, you cannot enter the JMicron RAID utility and
SATA BIOS setup during POST.

z If you intend to create a RAID configuration using this

connector, set the JMicron SATA Controller Mode item
in the BIOS to [RAID].

z DO NOT insert a different connector to this port.
z DO NOT unplug the external Serial ATA box when a

RAID 0 or JBOD is configured.
