These connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA
3Gb/s hard disk and optical disk drives. The Serial ATA 3Gb/s is
backward compatible with Serial ATA 1.5Gb/s specification.
If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0,
RAID 1, RAID 0+1, RAID 5 or JBOD configuration with the Primary and
Secondary IDE drives through the onboard NVIDIA
®
MCP-04 RAID
controller. Refer to section “5.4.2 NVIDIA
®
RAID configurations” on
page 5-23 for details on how to set up Serial ATA and Parallel ATA
RAID configurations.
• These connectors are Disabled by default. If you intend to create a
Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, enable the
