the ASUS EZ-Backup connectors (EZ_RAID1 and EZ_RAID2) to enjoy the

instant setup; otherwise, you may also install on the ICH7R connectors.

• You may install an extra hard disk drive on.the JMicron Serial ATA

connector after using up the Intel

®

JMB363 Controller item in the BIOS is set to [Basic] by default,

allowing you to enable the hot-plug function for the external device. Set to [Raid]

to use the connector to build a RAID set. See section “4.4.6 Onboard Device
