1-26 Chapter 1: Product introduction
4. JMicron JMB363 ® Serial ATA RAID connectors
(7-pin SATA_E1[black], SATA_E2[black])
These connectors are for Serial ATA signal cables. These connectors
support Serial ATA hard disk drives that you can configure for RAID
through the onboard Serial ATA RAID controller.
The JMicron SATA controller mode item in the BIOS is set to [IDE] by
default. Set the item to [RAID] if you want to build a RAID set. See
section “2.4.5 Onboard Device Configuration” for details.
• Before creating a RAID set using Serial ATA hard disks, make sure
that you have connected the Serial ATA signal cables and installed
Serial ATA hard disk drives; otherwise, you cannot enter the
JMicron ® JMB363 RAID utility and SATA BIOS setup during POST.
• Install an internal Serial ATA hard disk drive to SATA_E1 or SATA_E2
and an external Serial ATA hard disk drive on your system before
creating the JMicron ® JMB363 RAID.
