Internal USB Memory Key Connector

The system provides an internal USB connector located on the expansion- card riser 2 board for use with a USB flash memory key (see Figure 6-4). The USB memory key can be used as a boot device, security key, or mass storage device. To use the internal USB connector, the Internal USB Port option must be enabled in the Integrated Devices screen of the System Setup program.

To boot from the USB memory key, you must configure the USB memory key with a boot image and then specify the USB memory key in the boot sequence in the System Setup program. See "System Setup Options" on page 48. For information on creating a bootable file on the USB memory key, see the user documentation that accompanied the USB memory key.
