ASUS M2N-SLI 1-3
Serial ATA 3Gb/s RAID
The motherboard supports the next-generation Serial ATA hard drives based on the
SATA 3Gb/s storage specification. The onboard NVIDIA nForce ® 560 SLI™ MCP
allows RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1, RAID 5, and JBOD. See page 2-26.
PCI Express™ interface
The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect technology
that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point serial
interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by carrying data
in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible with existing PCI
specifications. See page 2-19 for details.
S/PDIF digital sound ready
The motherboard supports the S/PDIF Out function through the S/PDIF interfaces
on the rear panel. The S/PDIF technology turns your computer into a high-end
entertainment system with digital connectivity to powerful audio and speaker
systems. See page 2-24 and 2-31 for details.
USB 2.0 technology
The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specification,
dramatically increasing the connection speed from the 12 Mbps bandwidth on USB
1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1.
See page 2-24 and 2-28 for details.
IEEE 1394a support
The IEEE 1394a interface provides high-speed and flexible PC connectivity to
a wide range of peripherals and devices compliant to the IEEE 1394a standard.
The IEEE 1394a interface allows up to 400 Mbps transfer rates through simple,
low-cost, high-bandwidth asynchronous (real-time) data interfacing between
computers, peripherals, and consumer electronic devices such as camcorders,
VCRs, printers, TVs, and digital cameras. See page 2-28 for details.
This function can only work under C-Media official driver.
