This motherboard adopts NVIDIA
®
nForce 560 SLI chipset that supports Serial ATA
(SATA) / Serial ATAII (SATAII) hard disks and RAID functions. You may install SATA /
SATAII hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices. This section will
guide you to install the SATA / SATAII hard disks.
STEP 1: Install the SATA / SATAII hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis.
STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA / SATAII hard disk.
STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard’s SATAII
connector.
STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA / SATAII hard
disk.
1. If you plan to use RAID 0, RAID 1 or JBOD function, you need to install
at least 2 SATA / SATAII hard disks. If you plan to use RAID 5 function,
you need to install 3 SATA / SATAII hard disks. If you plan to use
RAID 0+1 function, you need to install 4 SATA / SATAII hard disks.
2. It is recommended to build RAID on internal SATAII ports. In other words,
if SATAII_RED (PORT 2.1) is used for eSATAII port, please build RAID on
other SATAII ports.
