This motherboard adopts Intel ICH5 south bridge chipset that supports Serial ATA
(SATA) hard disks. You may install SATA hard disks on this motherboard for
internal storage devices. This section will guide you to install the SATA hard disks.
STEP 1: Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis.
STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA hard disk.
STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard’s primary
SATA connector (SATA1).
STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the primary SATA hard
disk. If you just want to install only one SATA HDD, the installation
process is complete at this step. If you want to install two SATA HDDs,
please continue to do the following steps.
STEP 5: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA hard disk.
STEP 6: Connect one end of the second SATA data cable to the motherboard’s
secondary SATA connector (SATA2).
STEP 7: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the secondary SATA hard
disk.
Before you install OS into the SATA hard disk, you need to check and
ensure the configuration of the OnBoard IDE Operate Mode option in
BIOS setup is correct according to the condition of your system. For

This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology, which means during
overclocking, FSB enjoys better margin due to fixed AGP / PCI bus. You may set “CPU
Host Frequency” option of BIOS setup to [Auto], which will show you the actual CPU
host frequency in the following item. Therefore, CPU FSB is untied during overclocking,
but AGP / PCI bus is in the fixed mode so that FSB can operate under a more stable
overclocking environment.
Please refer to the warning on page 6 for the possible overclocking risk before
you apply Untied Overclocking Technology.
