Serial ATAII Connectors These four Serial ATAII (SATAII)
(SATA2_2: see p.2, No. 14) connectors support SATA data
(SATA2_3: see p.2, No. 13) cables for internal storage
(SATA2_4: see p.2, No. 12) devices. The current SATAII
(SATA2_5: see p.2, No. 11) interface allows up to 3.0 Gb/s
data transfer rate.
Serial ATA3 Connectors These six Serial ATA3 (SATA3)
(SATA3_0: see p.2, No. 16) connectors support SATA data
(SATA3_1: see p.2, No. 15) cables for internal storage
(SATA3_M1: see p.2, No. 18) devices. The current SATA3
(SATA3_M2: see p.2, No. 17) interface allows up to 6.0 Gb/s
(SATA3_M3: see p.2, No. 20) data transfer rate. If you install
(SATA3_M4: see p.2, No. 19) the HDD on the eSATA port on
the rear I/O, the internal
SATA3_M4 will not function.
We recommend to use Intel ® P67 SATA ports (SATA3_0, SATA3_1,
SATA2_2, SATA2_3, SATA2_4 and SATA2_5) for your bootable
devices. This will minimum your boot time and get the best
performance. But if you still want to boot from Marvell SATA3
controller, you can still enable
Marvell SATA3 Bootable in UEFI. If
you want to install USB 3.0 device on Marvell SATA3 port, please use
SATA3_M1 and SATA3_M2 as the fi rst priority for better performance.
