This motherboard adopts JMicron
®
JMB363 chipset that supports Serial ATAII
(SATAII) hard disks. It also adopts VIA
®
VT8237A south bridge chipset that
supports Serial ATA (SATA) hard disks, and supports 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 SATA /
SATAII connector.
STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA / SATAII hard
disk.
To create RAID with two HDDs, please insert the two HDDs simultaneously to
either SATA connectors (black) or SATAII connectors (red). If you insert one HDD to
SATA connector and the other HDD to SATAII connector, you are not allowed to
create RAID.

ALiveSATA2-GLAN
motherboard supports Hot Plug and Hot Swap functions for
SATA / SATAII Devices.
NOTE
What is Hot Plug Function?
If the SATA / SATAII HDDs are NOT set for RAID configuration, it is called
“Hot Plug” for the action to insert and remove the SATA / SATAII HDDs
while the system is still power-on and in working condition.
However, please note that it cannot perform Hot Plug if the OS has been
installed into the SATA / SATAII HDD.
What is Hot Swap Function?
If SATA / SATAII HDDs are built as RAID1 then it is called “Hot Swap” for
the action to insert and remove the SATA / SATAII HDDs while the system
is still power-on and in working condition.
