Multiple Drive Configurations
The KK400-RS motherboard includes two additional disk
drive subsystems you may want to make use of. These
include both a Highpoint HPT371 RAID controller with
one IDE connector for two drives and a Serial-ATA con-
troller with one onboard connector.
These additional controllers allow you to add additional
disk drives to the system over and above the four drives
supported by the standard onboard IDE controller. On
the KK400-RS you can connect an additional two ATA-
133 IDE, or slower, IDE devices, to the IDE RAID connec-
tor. The KK400-RS also provides an Serial-ATA connector,
to which you can connect an additional device.
This means that the KK400-RS supports a total of seven
devices including one Serial-ATA drive. If you are going
to configure your system with a large number of devices,
make sure that the wattage of the system power supply is
sufficient to support all the devices you want to install.
RAID & Serial-ATA Drivers
Both the Highpoint RAID and Serial-ATA features require
drivers to operate. The Power Installer support CD-ROM
disc includes Windows drivers for these features. Make
sure you install the appropriate driver if you will use ei-
ther of them. See the relevant Installation Guide on the
Power Installer for more information.
ATA-133 Cabling
The KK400 Series motherboards come with one ATA-100
cable. An ATA-133 mode cable is required for use with
the ATA-133 devices. ATA-133 cables are similar to the
supplied ATA-100 IDE ribbon cable. Both support two de-
vices. If you will connect more than two ATA-133 de-
vices to the board, make sure you purchase an additional
ribbon cable that is specifically for ATA-133.
Serial-ATA Cabling
The KK400-RS motherboard comes with a Serial-ATA
cable. You use it to connect a Serial-ATA device to the
onboard Serial-ATA connector. The connector is designed
so that it isn’t possible to plug the cable on the wrong
way.
