This connector supports either RAID 0 or RAID 1 configuration through
the onboard Promise

PDC20378 controller. You can connect two

UltraATA133 hard disks to this connector and set up a disk array
configuration. You may also set up the UltraATA133 hard disks with the
Serial ATA hard disks on the Serial ATA RAID connectors to create a
multi-RAID configuration. See Chapter 5 for details on RAID
configuration.

1. If you wish to create a RAID set using UltraATA hard disks, make

sure that you have connected the UltraATA cable and installed
UltraATA 133 hard disks.

devices such as CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, etc.

6. SMBus connector (6-1 pin SMB)

This connector allows you to connect SMBus (System Management
Bus) devices. Devices communicate with an SMBus host and/or other
