4.. Serial.ATA.connectors.(7-pin.SATA1,.SATA2)
These connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA
3Gb/s hard disk and optical disk drives. The Serial ATA 3Gb/s is backward
compatible with Serial ATA 1.5Gb/s specification. The data transfer rate of the
Serial ATA 3Gb/s is faster than the standard parallel ATA with 133 MB/s (Ultra
DMA133).
If you install Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, RAID 1,
and JBOD configuration through the onboard controller.

® XP Service Pack 1 before using Serial ATA.
• For detailed instructions on how to configure RAID 0, RAID 1 and JBOD,

• If you intend to create a Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, set
the onboard SATA Type item in the BIOS to [RAID controller]. See the page
