Drive Xpert Mode

This item allows you to choose the Drive Xpert modes.
[Normal Mode] Allows you to use the SATA6G_E1 and SATA6G_E2 connectors as normal
SATA connectors.
[Super Speed] Allows you to use the Super Speed function that combines two hard drives
as on single drive partition.
[EZ Backup] Allows you to use the EZ Backup function that copies and maintains an
identical image of data from the SATA6G_E1 drive to the SATA6G_E2
drive.
[Normal Mode]
When using only one hard disk in Normal Mode, connect the hard disk to the
SATA6G_E1 connector on the motherboard.
[Super Speed] [EZ Backup]
Please plug two EMPTY hard drives to the SATA6G_E1 and SATA6G_E2 connectors
before using this function, or else all data stored in the two hard drives will be
destroyed!
Mode change might damage the operating system if the operating system is already
installed on one of the hard drives.
