K8V SE Deluxe RAID Connectors

Important notes on the RAID feature:

•By default, the drive that you connect to the primary connector follows the ATA133/100/66/33 protocol as an independent drive, not as a disk array.

•The RAID/SATA controller chipset does not support ATAPI devices such as CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, etc.

•Refer to sections “5.6 Promise® RAID Configurations” and “5.7 VIA RAID Configurations” for details.
