SATA Connections (SATA1~SATA6)

Two Serial ATA (SATA) 3.0 connectors (I-SATA 0/1) are located on the motherboard.

In addition, four SATA 2.0 (I-SATA 2~5) connectors are also located on the board.

The SATA 3.0 ports support RAID 0, 1 while the SATA 2.0 ports support RAID 0, 1,

5 &10. These Serial Link connections provide faster data transmission than legacy

Parallel ATA. See the table below for pin denitions.
