2. Marvell ® Serial ATA 6Gb/s connectors
(7-pin SATA_6G_E1, 7-pin SATA_6G_E2 [navy blue])
These connectors are for the Serial ATA 6Gb/s signal cables for Serial ATA 6Gb/s hard
disk drives.
• These connectors are set to AHCI Mode by default.
• You must install Windows ® XP Service Pack 2 or later versions before using Serial ATA
hard disk drives.
• Press + during POST to enter the Marvell RAID utility to create or delete a
RAID configuration.
• If you want to install a Windows operating system to a RAID configuration created
using the Marvell SATA controller, you have to create a RAID driver disk using the
motherboard support DVD and load the driver during OS installation. For 32/64bit
Windows XP OS, load first the Marvell shared library driver, and then load Marvell
91xx SATA Controller Driver. For Windows Vista / Windows 7 OS, load only the
Marvell 91xx SATA Controller Driver.
