7) SATA2 2/3/4/5 (SATA 3Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by Intel Q77 Chipset)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 3Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s standard.
Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The Intel Q77 Chipset supports RAID 0, RAID 1,
RAID 5, and RAID 10.

are to be used, the total number of hard drives must be an even number.

6) SATA3 0/1 (SATA 6Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by Intel Q77 Chipset)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 6Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 3Gb/s and SATA
1.5Gb/s standard. Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The "SATA3 0" and "SATA3 1"
connectors support RAID 0 and RAID 1. RAID 5 and RAID 10 can be implemented on the two connectors
with the "SATA2 2/3/4/5" connectors
(Note)
.
(Note) When a RAID set is built across the SATA 6Gb/s and SATA 3Gb/s channels, the system performance
of the RAID set may vary depending on the devices being connected.
