Speech controller. This Winbond speech controller supports the
ASUS POST Reporter™ for configurable vocal POST alerts.

RAID Ultra ATA133 connector. This connector supports two Ultra
ATA133 HDDs. On RAID models, the HDDs on this connector may be
configured as RAID0, RAID1, or RAID0+1 together with the Serial ATA
HDDs on the SATA RAID connectors.

SATA connectors. These connectors support Serial ATA HDDs and
allows for up to 150MB/s data transfer rate using the thin 4-conductor
SATA cables. The HDDs may be configured as RAID 0 level storage
under Windows XP operating system.

SATA RAID connectors. These connectors support Serial ATA HDDs
and may be configured as RAID0, RAID1, RAID0+1. Together with the
UltraDMA133 devices, if present, the SATA RAID devices may be set
up as a multi-RAID configuration.

(on RAID models only)

RAID/SATA/IDE controller. The Promise

®

PDC20378 RAID controller

provides high-performance RAID0/RAID1/RAID0+1 functionality and
complies with the Serial ATA and UltraDMA 133 specifications.
(on RAID models only)

South bridge controller. The fifth-generation Intel I/O Controller Hub
(ICH5R) is a subsystem that integrates various I/O functions including
2-channel ATA/100 bus master IDE controller, SATA RAID controller, up
to eight USB 2.0/1.1 ports, I/O APIC, LPC interface, AC’97 2.3 interface,
and PCI 2.2/2.3 interface. The ICH5 also contains the necessary
arbitration and buffering for efficient utilization of these interfaces.

IEEE 1394 controller. The VIA VT6307 controller chipset supports two
low power IEEE 1394 connectors to allow 100Mbps, 200Mbps, and
400Mbps data transfers between the 1394 devices.
(on 1394 models only)

Wi-Fi slot. The Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) slot connects a Wi-Fi
equipment for wireless networking that allows 11Mbps transmission
(with a fallback to 5.5, 2, and 1 Mbps) in the 2.4 GHz band. Wi-Fi
networks use radio technologies known as IEEE 802.11b (or later) to
provide a fast reliable wireless connectivity.

Super I/O controller. This Winbond Low Pin Count (LPC) interface
provides the commonly used Super I/O functionality. The chipset supports
a high-performance floppy disk controller for a 360K/720K/1.44M/2.88M
floppy disk drive, a multi-mode parallel port, two standard compatible
UARTs, and a Flash ROM interface. This controller also integrates the
ASIC for PC health monitoring.
